I created this hat in response to a family’s request for personalized hats in their favorite team colors. After knitting 12 of them, I thought perhaps others might like to make some as well. I used most of one skein for the main color and a smaller amount for the contrast color.
Gauge is not really critical because the hats are quite stretchy. Don’t pull your yarns too tightly when changing colors, you want a nice even gauge.
