This hat is really easy and can be knit in any worsted-weight yarn. However, if you haven’t tried Dream in Color Classy, I suggest you get your hands on some as soon as possible. This stuff is sock-yarn squishy yet has all of the quick-knit pleasure in a thicker worsted-weight. Also, the colors are really gorgeous. Even the black I used isn’t a completely uniform black, so it was still interesting to knit.
