The Better in Burgundy hat has reached the decrease stage.

When I am working my hat “recipe” I tend to use a star shaped decrease. For instance with 88 stitches I work in 10 stitch sections and the last one leaves me with 8 when I reach BOR. I then alternate stockinette rounds with decrease rounds until I get down to a handful stitches on the needles and then I decrease every row rapidly to finish.

It’s not perfect but it works for me and muggles don’t notice it’s not 100% symmetrical. It also helps that it require very little brain cells.

What is your favorite hat decrease?
