Easy enough to follow if your'e a kniiter. For those who don't know,and assuming there are no shapings- to finish break off wool, approx 10". Using darning needle, thread through stitches and pull tight. (This is top of beanie.)Overstitch once to secure, then fold lengthwise and sew through stitches along back to make back seam. Secure wool by knotting through last stitch. Cut off surplus wool.
Assuming this is British as we say wool and not yarn the following needle sizes:
UK/CAN U.S. METRIC (mm)
6 8 5.0
Hope this helps in the aid of your charity!

Ok, so the pattern info is a bit difficult for beginners to decipher, but criticism can be made nicely, or encouraging! Let's not forget this is for charity and the person who submitted it has done a good thing just by taking the time to offer it.
