The hat is worked in the round from the bottom up using double-pointed needles – alternatively, you could use a 40cm circular needle and the magic loop technique for the crown.

The cowl is worked in the round using a 60cm circular needle. This cowl starts with an i-cord cast on and ends with an i-cord cast off. Alternatively, you can cast on 115 sts with the long tail method and finish with an ordinary chain cast off, then work an applied i-cord around the edges.
