???? Unless you know you knit Fair Isle very loose, we suggest using a size #8 needle for it. Use the recommended size for the ribbing. The Washington Hat is part of Nancy Bates’s All American Road Trip Collection. The pattern is not in Knitting the National Parks Book. We think Nancy put it best: “The foggy and overcast days that make Seattle one of the least sunny cities in the country also help create the spectacular forests that cover half of the state and has earned it the nickname “The Evergreen State”. Whether the day is bright and sunny or drenched in rain, there’s something about a forest that draws you in and invites you to stay a while. With just four colors, this design embodies the beauty of a fog-covered forest on a dreary day.” Kit includes: Enough *yarn (4 colors) and 6 stitch markers to make the Washington Beanie. The pattern is sized adult, 19″ to 22″. ???? As of September 12th the pattern will not be included in this kit. This gives you the flexibility of who you buy ($5.00) from (Nancy Bates or Ravelry), automatic updates and how you print the pattern. Plus many people get excited and buy the pattern before the kit. The Kit does not include pattern or needles; pattern calls for US 5 (3.75mm) for the brim and US 7 (4.5mm) for the hat body. About the yarn: We chose 4 colors in two bases (Malabrigo Rios & Berroco Vintage) to get the closest match to Nancy Bates’ sample beanie. Both Rios and Vintage are machine washable and ultra-soft, making this a beanie you won’t want to take off! *We’ve allotted a minimum of 10% extra for yarn usage based on the pattern recommendations by Nancy Bates. If you want to knit a fold-over brim or add extra length, we recommend buying full skeins. This hat with the yarn and notions priced separately would be $73.04. With whole skeins you could make up to 4 hats by switching color placement. **Please note that as beautiful as the Washington Beanie is, this is not a beginner pattern for those just learning Fair Isle techniques. For those looking for something a little easier, we recommend the Mammoth Mountain Beanie Kit. It makes for a perfect first Fair Isle hat to warm you up before tackling the Washington Beanie.
