Ruby is a quick and easy tam to make up as the weather turns warmer and a woolen hat is a little too hot. Two skeins of yarn, a few hours of knitting, and you’re good to go.

The ombre ribbing with an eyelet row at the top are interesting additions to a classic shape. The spiral decreases make this just as appealing from the back.
