Once again, I am having a problem with the pattern. I am beginning to wonder if these patterns were tried out or even proofread by a knowledgeable knitter before going to press. It is virtuously impossible to follow the instructions and have the finished product look like the photograph. It was impossible to come anywhere near the dimensions no matter what needle or yarn I used. And, believe me, I tried. I’ll have to think long and hard before trying another pattern in this book.

Yes, I had much the same problem. The hat was way too long.
