    Bind off all stitches as follows (remove marker): *k2togtbl (knit 2


    together through the back loop), place the stitch from the right needle to
    the left needle, repeat from * all across. Break yarn and weave in all the
    ends.

    I-cord tie:
    With the U.S. 8 (16 inch) circular
    needle cast on 5 stitches. Work
    an I-cord until the piece
    measures: 29, 30, 31, 32 inches

    The length is easily adjusted


    depending on how long or short
    you may like the tie. Break yarn
    leaving a tail, weave tail through
    remaining stitches and pull tight.
    Weave in all ends.

    Tie the I-cord around the base


    of the hat in a square knot {do
    not pull to snug, just place
    around comfortably}. Tack
    The Velvet down at the knot to the hat, and
    Acorn Designs tack down opposite the knot on
    the other side. This will secure
    tie to hat.
