NOTES
I wanted to make a fingering weight hat with left over sock yarn. I also wanted to include the brim from the Oslo Hat.
Modifications
I used fingering weight yarn and a 2.5mm needle.
I cast on for the adult large size, (cast on 132 stitches).
Fold over brim - knit 7.5”
Knit 6” past the fold before starting decreases
I followed the decreases as listed in the Classic Ribbed Hat pattern for the largest size.

Final Thoughts
I like this hat, and I am a fan of being able to use up my fingering weight sock yarns. The 1x1 ribbing is warmer than I initially thought it would be. The combination of the Oslo Hat and the Classic Ribbed Hat pattern is a good fit.
