OK, this is more of an adaptation of the original Hemlock Ring Doily pattern (made famous as BrooklynTweed's Hemlock Ring Blanket) than an actual pattern.Again, this is not so much a pattern as an outline of how I made the tam you see in these photos. I checked everything, but as my life is full of errors, these instructions are probably not immune and it's been a while since I knit up this hat. If you find any errors, please let me know at my email address: swayandswish@gmail.com.
Supplies:
1 ball Teva Durham Loop-D-Loop Moss in Pink. (I used less than one ball)
5 DPNs, size US 3
Gauge:
I did not measure my gauge while working b/c I was playing it by ear.
Post-blocking, gauge = 7 stitches x 9 rows in stockinette. The yarn is labeled as a DK weight but I worked tight on small needles.
Instructions:
Start working the Hemlock Ring Doily pattern.
Work until you finish Row 47.
*Rows 48-50: Knit around.
*Row 51: (YO, k1) 2 times, YO, k2, [skp] 3 times, [k2tog] 3 times, k2, (YO, k1) 3 times.

I am totally making one of these. It's such a gorgeous hat and I've got some DK weight yarn around. :)
oooh pretty! i recently bought some rare to find 12" circulars while in washington...can you make this using that and not dpns? i would love to knit a hat one day but i'm afraid to because i don't really want to learn how to use dpns
