This advanced-beginner–friendly pattern is worked in the round, starting with the ribbed band at the bottom and using decreases to end in a point at the top, to which a tassel is attached. It uses a little less than 70% of one skein of Patons Classic Wool Worsted yarn and will fit most adults and older teens. Simple instructions are included to adjust the size, or to adjust for a heavier or lighter weight yarn.

Pattern updated to version 2 on 2/11/2026; no errata, just clarification of some instructions, plus instructions for a variation with a folded-up brim.
