This pattern was whipped up to provide a basic earflap hat for our customers. Lots of people were looking for something to keep their loved ones warm this past winter. We had LOTS AND LOTS of snow here in Idaho. I used several online, free patterns and my own experience making earflap hats for myself and my family’s little and big ones. Enjoy, and please let me know if you find anything that doesn’t make sense, or needs to be changed. This is my first design that I’ve shared with others.
