Hat worked in the round from brim to crown using helical stripes in 3 colors. It is made to be worn as a beanie, with the brim cuffed and the pom pom out. Or, you can flip it to the button side, with the pom pom tucked inside, and wear it uncuffed and slouchy.

This is a quick knit and the perfect introduction to helix knitting.

Using 3 different chunky weight yarns, its a stash buster.

The pattern has been professionally tech edited and test knit.

42 Kinks designs are made to be skill builders for advanced beginners. You are ready for this pattern if you can: cast on, join in the round, knit, purl, sew in ends, attach button and pom pom, and are ready to learn a few new stitches.
