This sweet little textured hat is a quick knit with a simple pattern. It’s knit in the round from the bottom up, with decreases at the crown forming a pinwheel. Knit it in one color as shown (which is perfect for beginner knitters) or add a second color for alternating checkers (for slightly more advanced knitters)!
