Madison

This document provides instructions for knitting the Madison hat. It calls for worsted weight yarn and size 8 needles. The hat is worked in the round beginning with a ribbed brim. The main pattern stitch is worked over 8 stitches and involves knit and cable stitches. The hat increases in size with each round until the decreases begin, working fewer stitches in each round through the final few rounds until only a few stitches remain to be bound off. Sizes are provided for toddler, child, and adult.
