I used 7 strands of yarn and weaved them in and out every 2 stitches
in row 12. Make sure you leave a little slack so the hat can
stretch over the childs head.

Just curious what is the difference between connecting and joining?
I don’t ‘think there is a difference.
I live the hats & would like to make one for my great niece & her mother when they come to visit from Texas. But am I missing the part for how much yarn is need for each size?? I want to purchase enought in the same dye lots?
