I want to make a couple of your hats, I have a stash of Redheart team colors which calls for an US 8 knitting needle and for a crochet hook size 5.5mm Worsted weight. Can you tell me if this yarn will work with your pattern ? Thank You .
ReplyDeleteYes! That is the same brand and weight yarn I used to make my hats.
DeleteThank you for the info. One more question , do you have this in an adult pattern
