Update 2/27/13 - after seeing several projects where this came out too short, I’ve added some length in the pattern. Obviously YMMV and if you can, try this on before binding off.

This is a simple hat pattern I cranked out one day when my husband needed something quick and warm. I used one skein of Wool of the Andes, but any worsted weight yarn would be fine. Be creative!
