Blaze

                          Blaze
  This is a hat that is very adaptable. I made it for my dad, but it fits pretty much every adult head. It can be lengthened to a more slouchy fit, too.

  Materials, Red Heart Super Savers in Pumpkin. (Two strands are held together.)Scissors, and a set of four #10 1/2 DPNs.

  CO 20 stitches on each needle, work seven rounds in k2xp1 rib, Knit 20 rounds. If you want a slouchy hat, knit 5-10 more.
 Now, to shape the top,
    21: K 6, K2tog around
    22: K 5, K2tog around
    23: K 4, K2tog around
    24: K 3, K2tog around
    25: K 2, K2tog around
    26: K 1, K2tog around  
    30: K2tog around. Break off yarn, pull through loops and fasten tightly. Weave in ends. Enjoy!
