Knitted Wavy Gravy Hat

I knitted a Wavy Gravy Hat to donate. 

I found the pattern here and adapted it to a bulky yarn. I used a Caron Anniversary Cake (the colour is Tropical Breeze) and 6.5mm circular needles.

Cast on 72 stitches. Join, taking care not to twist and place marker at the beginning of round. 

• Round 1: purl
• Round 2: knit 
• Round 3: *(k2tog) two times, (yo,k1) four times, (k2tog) two times* rep from * to * to end of round
• Round 4: purl
• Round 5: knit 
• Round 6: knit 
• Round 7: *(k2tog) two times, (yo,k1) four times, (k2tog) two times* rep from * to * to end of round
• Round 8: purl 

• Repeat rounds 5 to 8 a total of 7 times. 

• Knit two rounds

Decrease for crown: 

• Round 1: *k7, k2tog* rep from *to* to end of round (64 sts remain) 
• Round 2: knit 
• Round 3: *k6, k2tog* rep from *to* to end of round (56 sts remain) 
• Round 4: knit 
• Continue decreasing 8 sts every other round until 8 sts remain 
• Draw yarn through the remaining stitches and fasten off
