Plumberry Hat is worked from the brim to crown, starting with a provisional cast on to create a neat folded brim. The extra layer provides warmth for ears and foreheads while staying fairly lightweight overall. It’s the perfect accessory for cold weather outfits and looks great in bold or neutral colors. Add a furry pom-pom and that special knitter’s tag you’ve been saving to complete the look.
