I love this hat! It’s warm, stretchy, and oh so comfortable. But I think the pom pom is my favorite part. I wasn’t sure how this yarn would look in a pom pom, so I was extremely pleased with the result. It’s floppy and lush, and reminds me of a lion’s mane. This is the perfect accessory for strolling down a city street on a frigid winter day or sitting around a bonfire roasting marshmallows! Plus, you can change up the look by adjusting the cuff up or down, or not cuffing it at all for a more boho style. This pattern works up very quickly and with basic stitches so it’s great even for beginners. As written it’s one size. However, it’s easily adjustable because it starts as a rectangle! You can adjust the height or the width simply by increasing or decreasing your starting chain and the number of rows. You will need 2 skeins of Hometown USA Yarn by Lion Brand in Hoboken Honey.
