Notes
- Chain 1 will NOT count as a stitch.
- Joining: When ending the rounds, you will join with a slip stitch into the 1st stitch (not the chain 1).
- When you are repeating round 2, you will see that the length is longer than the beanie measurements, but the extra length will be the top extra portion.
