Hello! This headband pattern calls for US 10½ - 6.5 mm needles, but you'll want to use the size that meets gauge (or creates your desired fabric) with your yarn. Any length of circular needle should work, since the largest width is 3.5 in / 9 cm. You can find all of the details for this pattern on Ravelry (www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/my-favorite-cable-headband) or my website shop (www.snickerdoodleknits.com/product-page/my-favorite-cable-headband). I do also have a simple knit hat pattern, however, which may be the pattern you have in mind. That pattern calls for US 11 - 8.0 mm needle, but again you'll want to use the needle that meets gauge with your yarn. Since the hat pattern is worked in the round, the length of the circular needle is more important. I recommend minimum length 9 in / 23 cm for children’s sizes and 16 in / 40 cm for adult sizes. If you're using Magic Loop, anything longer than the hat's circumference will be great. You can find all of the details for the hat pattern on Ravelry (www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/my-favorite-simple-knit-hat) or my website shop (www.snickerdoodleknits.com/product-page/my-favorite-simple-knit-hat). Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any additional questions!
@@donnar9102 Thanks so much! Was that the blog post or the PDF download? The download should include the version that was updated this year. I just changed those numbers on the blog. Thanks again!
@@donnar9102 The blog was just updated yesterday to the correct number: C8. If you still have questions or are finding the C4 somewhere, it might be easier to communicate via email. My contact info is on the pattern 😊 Thanks so much!
Hi there, if you are having trouble with hearing the video, I recommend that you check the computer/phone volume for the device that you're on, as well as any connected headphones or speakers. (If you have wireless headphones connected to your device, you'll have to have the headphones on to hear the sound.) Additionally, you can click the speaker icon at the bottom left of the video to adjust the volume on UA-cam. I hope that helps! If you'd like to turn on captions while you watch, just click the CC button near the bottom right of the video.

Can you please clarify on your pattern for adult medium, on one pattern you have C4 on on another you have C8. Which is correct?
Hi Donna, thanks for reaching out! It should be C8 - working a total of 8 stitches for the cable. Where did you find the version with the C4? Thanks!
On your website.
