This is a thickly textured, warm, comfy & cozy cap with the look of knitted ribbing that you’ll enjoy making and wearing. Make one in your favorite wizard house colors, or make several – one in every wizard house color combination. By using a thinner yarn with a smaller hook, you can make these caps to fit children and babies too.

LEVEL OF EXPERIENCE
Intermediate – you will be making front post and back post double crochet stitches, and joining in such a way as to avoid a noticeable join or a spiral effect.
