Notes
This pattern uses the K4B technique, which means to Knit 4 Below. When you come to the K4B stitch, take the stitch off of your left needle using your right needle or fingers and intentionally drop 4 rows down. That will give you 4 ladders. Pick up the one stitch underneath yarn which should be the first row of the color in last clue. Place the 4 ladders to the back of that stitch. Bring working yarn around and knit into that one stitch catching all 4 ladders in stitch.
This pattern will work up a beanie size fit. If you would like a slouchy fit, you will need 6 Bulky minis. Add the 6th mini after the 5th and work into rotation. After working 6th mini the second time, start decrease.
