Designed by Kiyomi Burgin, the Chōcho Hat is worked in one piece from the brim up. The chart is worked using the stranded colorwork method. Keep floats loose to maintain an elastic fabric. We strongly encourage you to check your gauge, as stranded knitting can work up tighter than you would normally knit (we usually have to go up at least one needle size).
