Bangled Hat Pattern

Bangled Hat Pattern
I found these awesome bangle things thinking I would make a purse. I came home they sat in a drawer then I decided to make a hat out of them! The bangle line up in a neat diagonal pattern. I strung them in alternating color and to keep the pattern going if one wasn't the right color for the sequence at the beginning of the row I just snipped it out. I am not sure how many I used but it was less than half of the small bag I purchased at Walmart.

Supplies:

• Bangle type sequins
• Size 8 11" or 16" circular needle
• Worsted weight yarn (I used woolease)
• Tapestry Needle
• Stitch marker to mark beginning of round.

NOTE: SB- Slide Bangle Down to Stitch then K1 to lock bangle in place.

Cast on 80 stitches (Join in the round) and do 1-1.5" of K1, P1 ribbing, Then knit one row.

Cut yarn and thread through tapestry needle. Run through remaining stitches and pull up tight. Secure and weave in ends. You can make one for yourself or for a friend but do not sell them and please share the link and not the pattern itself. Enjoy!
