Cast on a few stitches and…pop! The hat is done! Using super bulky yarn, you can knit this hat up in no time at all.

Warm and playful—Can be knit in solid color of red so that, by eliminating the pompon, you have a Nisse or Tomte hat! Hat is worked from the brim to the point. For the cast on and first two rows, it is worked flat; thereafter, it is worked in the round.

Sizes: Available in 4 sizes, from child to adult. (XS) 16” x 20” 40-1/2 x 51 cm; (S) 18” x 21” 46 x 53-1/2 cm; (M) 20” x 22” 51 x 56 cm; (L) 22” x 23” 56 x 58-1/2 cm

Yarn: While a specific yarn is listed, any yarn of similar WPI could be substituted. Alternately, if it is hard lo locate a Jumbo yarn, two yarns of a lighter weight could be held together.

Please also note that a strong, plied, lighter weight yarn will be need to make the tie around the pompon; I recommend you use a similar color--you will need 18-24”
