Knit a wee pussyhat-ish hat for my granddaughter while on a weekend get-away in Michigan’s U.P.

This is what I did:

CO 98 sts (includes 1 selvage st at each side)

Work 2x2 rib for 2” (begin each row with slip and k1 or p1)

Work in stockinette stitch, with or without stripes, for approx. 6.75” (including ribbing)

Knit half-way across, then fold & manipulate needles as needed in order to work 3-needle bind-off

Sew up side seam

Voila!
