"This hat looks so warm and cozy. I would definitely love to wear this during the winter!"

"I went to Yarnspirations and asked. Here's the answer. Recommend putting a marker at the beginning and end of the last pattern section. This will help to identify if you have enough stitches to complete the pattern. If you do not have enough for the pattern just knit or purl stitches. Good luck I don't know if I understand this answer. Let us know if it works."
