Thank you. Bonnie <em>Zontee says: Hi Bonnie, a basic shell is just 5 dc into one stitch, skip 2 stitches, sc, skip 2 stitches, and then repeat. Just do that for a row or two wherever you want the pattern to appear in the hat's body (after the crown or increasing part of the hat). </em> I understand your pattern, but can you tell me how to incorporate a shell pattern for a row or two into the basic hat?

We would like one that is tightly made, like the ones you see so many sportspersons wearing. Any ideas?
