The hat is worked in the round from the bottom up. Starting with a single colour, which will later be folded inward to create a double layer over the ears. After that, the colourwork section is made slightly shorter befor folding so that the solid part forms a small edge at the bottom of the hat. The cast-on stitches are picked up and knitted together with the working stitches as you continue in pattern.
