Hi Juls. I think the first thing I would look at is did you check your gauge? The hat will give you a 22 circumference after you inrcsaee at the ribbing, at 4 stitches to the inch. If you are on gauge, did your stranding come out a little tight? It really helps when you start the colorwork to have quite loose tension. Another thing to check, I would measure around your head. If you’re finding you need more than 22 , you could easily go up 8 stitches in the pattern, since it’s an 8-stitch colorwork repeat. But if you want to try blocking it, it’s pretty amazing what blocking can do sometimes you can whip the yarn into submission, unless your tension with your colorwork was too tight. Before you block (if you decide to go that route), do measure your head, so when you pin it out, you can make it the desired circumference.Good luck! Let me know if you need more help.Bethany
