Hi! So it’s a long story, but basically, if you don’t add extra stitches, then you get a stretch of 4k or 4p when you switch from row 2 to 3 and from row 4 back to row 1. Which is basically the exact same problem just in another spot. I have another seed stitch hat done without extra stitches and people complained about it that way. So with this pattern I tried another strategy. Seed stitch in the round is a little tricky and personally, neither type of “seam” bothers me, I just put it in the back of the hat, but I was trying to keep people happy. You are certainly welcome to not add the extra two stitches, it shouldn’t affect the fit! Happy knitting! 🙂

I was JUST curious why you add the two stitches after creating the rim of the hat? It says to make the seed stitch work but with those two the rows begin and end the same so there are 4k or 4p in a row. If you leave them it works out nicely. Is there a reason for them to be there like that?
