"There are no squares to make, please use the eyelet pattern for your reference rather than a construction chart. Remember is you need to make it shorter or taller to increase or decrease by 4 rows only. Also if you need to make it bigger then you increase the number of stitches by 13" and 14 rows (one pattern according to your gauge as instructed) this will increase or decrease your finished pattern size by 4 inches ( 4" longer and 4" wider or 4" shorter and 4" narrower. Remember to adjust your pattern pieces accordingly - if you change the back besure to change the front as well. If you need extra length for the sleeve adjust both sleeves accordingly (or shorter as needed) this adjusts the area inside of the bands. You may need an additional skein of yarn so you do not run short. It is not hard to do, just take your time and think it thru. Good luck to all, it is a beautiful pattern."

"Yes, please note that this has a 4 row pattern. Row 1 you knit 2 together (thus reducing by 1 stitch) repeating across the row. Row 3 you are doing a ssk (slip stitch, slip stitch, and then knit 1 stitch across the row, this keeps the number of stitches consistent through out. - You are never really decreasing or increasing the pattern, just making a nice eyelet (hole)."

"You can use the right button on your mouse to print it. If you have a .pdf program of any kind you can adjust the margins, I use .5 on both sides gives a nicer clean finish, and save your file that way else you can simple print to printer at that point. good luck. I love this pattern also, have fun"

"I have a 38 bust. I cant understand how a 28 body width could be oversized for an adult. I would love to make this sweater. Any suggestions?"

"I like to download the patterns and then print them out and annotate and count on the pattern itself. I don't see where I can download this pattern to my pattern files."

"This adorable Happy Hippo Hat is an easy animal hat knitting pattern for newborns, babies and toddlers. It was inspired by a fun classic board game that my son found in my parents' basement and it looks so cute on a little one. It includes instructions for the adorable hippo snout and cute little hippo ears. You will want to make more than one to give as gifts for every baby shower you go to!"

This is such a cut pattern for a little one. I have a friend who loves to put different hats on her little one and this will be perfect. You don't see many hippo patterns. Easy to follow and will work up quickly. Thank you.

I just saved this one. I have new twin grand sons and this would look great on them. I have a nice pattern for a diaper cover so it will make a great set. It is easy and should make up quickly. Thank you for sharing this great pattern for my grand sons.

This is another animal hat that is too cute for words. I have seen other hippo hats and I love the simplistic design of this one. Any baby would look adorable wearing it and it is another pattern that would make a perfect gift or photo props. Looks like another pattern I'm adding to my list.

I have a friend who loves hippos a lot, so this will be perfect when she has her first baby! Such a cute pattern.
