    Hi,
    I am trying to make this hat and I seem to have a problem when beginning the decrease. At the end
    of Row 8 (the top part) I have 96 stitches. When I begin the 1st row of 20 that row only calls for using 91 stitches, so I have 5 stitches left over. Can you please help me to figure out what I am doing wrong. Thank you!

      Hello Sue, no i can not see where you can be going wrong. There is a Ravelry group page kAL for this hat. The group has gone quiet but you may find something that may be of help. The group is called ''Lotus hat knit-a-long''. I would love to knit this hat again so will cast on another hat this afternoon & in doing so, may be able to figure out where your having problems. Let me know if your still struggling with it. Best regards Lorraine

      This is not my pattern. I can't remember who supplied it.

    SO I found the original pattern and see the error in your translation of it. In line 1 of the last 20 rounds you have an extra K1 at the beginning. Removing that makes it work out fine. :)
