Cast on 72 (76/80) stitches. Join and knit 28 (32/36) rounds (if you want to match mittens closely, include stripes in color). Next: *knit 7 stitches, knit 2 stitches together; repeat from * to end of round (knit left-over stitches, if any, at the end of the round). Knit 5 rounds. Next: *knit 6 stitches, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round. Again, knit 5 rounds. Next: *knit 5, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round. Knit 5 rounds. Then, *knit 4, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round. Knit 5 rounds. Next, *knit 3, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round. Knit 5 rounds. Next, *knit 2, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round. Again, knit 5 rounds. Next, *knit 1, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end round. Once more, knit 5 rounds. Next round: *knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round (on large size hat, repeat this last round once more). Next round: *knit 1, knit 2 together; repeat from * to end of round. You should end up with 5 to 7 stitches at this point. Distribute stitches over 2 needles. Switch to different color yarn and knit cord about 5” long, pull yarn through stitches. Tie knot in cord (see picture of hats).
