Cupcake Hat Pattern

CO 60 sts using the (double) long-tail cast on (Latvian cast-on?)

Join to knit in the round and K2P2 for 15 rounds with the ‘cake’ color

Change yarn to ‘icing’ color and knit 3 rows

Next: [k2tog, yo]x30

knit 3 rows

Next: knit each stitch together with the corresponding back loop of the 1st row of ‘icing’ color to form the picot edge (if you prefer you can do this by sewing after you are done knitting).

Knit 15 rows then start decreasing every row:

[k8, k2tog]x6

[k7, k2tog]x6

[k6, k2tog]x6

[k5, k2tog]x6

[k4, k2tog]x6

[k3, k2tog]x6

[k2, k2tog]x6

[k1, k2tog]x6

[k2tog]x6

Change yarn to ‘cherry’ color and knit 1 row

Next:[ kfb]x6

Knit 2 rounds

[k2tog]x6

Cut yarn and pull thru the 6 remaining stitches. Weave in all the ends.

A yarn with a gauge of 3.5sts per inch will give you a child sized hat, while a yarn with a gauge of 5.5sts/in will give you a newborn hat.
