This hat was designed one night sitting with my husband…he wanted a new hat, but had some specific things he wanted it to do…he wanted it to fit snug, he wanted his ears covered and the back of his neck as well, but he didn’t want Ear Flaps so there was nothing hanging down in his way. This is what we came up with, and he absolutely loves it!
I shared my design with a Crochet Club and due to all the great comments and suggestions to make the pattern available, I have decided to do so.
I have recently been told that I am legally disabled, but since I was a stay at home mother most of my life, I do not qualify for disability insurance, so I am doing what I can to earn enough money to support my yarn and pattern purchasing habits.
I will be offering boutique quality patterns for purchase, at affordable prices. Please visit my Facebook page at www.facebook.com/BySamiJurek if you are interested in finished items for sale, as well as occasional free patterns!

This pattern is currently in testing, but should be available to purchase in a couple days…these make great gifts for all the men in your life, keep their ears and neck as toasty warm as their head!
