This hat can use worsted or aran wright yarn and is knit in the round from ribbing up to crown using a basic 4 stitch cable. It is knit with a double length ribbing so it may be cuffed to keep ears extra cozy on cold days. And what’s a hat without a Pom Pom?!?! The finishing touch (if desired) is is the pompom and it is sewn in at the end after wash and blocking
