This adorable earflap hat is colorful making it eye-catching and irresistible to the young ones 3+ years of age. It is very warm, using doubled yarn, a little added fiberfill at the top and makes a great cold weather hat.

It can easily be adjusted for older children or adults by knitting more rounds before the decreases for the crown. For wider heads (22+“, use a larger needle, otherwise use the same size needle for most sizes and just adjust the length. It is very stretchy!

The buttons are very easy to sew on. Just thread a sewing needle and just keep attaching them around the hat. It’s so much easier that way and takes no time at all!
