About this pattern

A knitted winter hat patterned with the Colorado state flag. The crown is navy blue with a white band across its middle; on the front sits the flag's round red letter C, open to the right, wrapped around a gold disc that is exactly as tall as the white band. The turned-up cuff is red with darker red ribs, and a round gold pom-pom sits on top. The hat mirrors left to right except for the opening of the C. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 40 by 44 stitches and uses six thread colors.

40 stitches wide by 44 high: 1,262 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Medium Navy Blue 311, Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938 and 3 more).
