I originally came up with this pattern because my daughter’s friends were showing up at my house on some bitterly cold winter days without hats on their heads. They said they didn’t have hats so I got to work. I live in Minnesota, on the shore of Lake Superior and about 95 miles from Canada. Our winters are typically long and cold. The following 2 or 3 winters, I made up several of these hats and donated them to the school to give to kids who didn’t have them. It’s so quick, so easy and so neutral that I hope whomever makes one might consider making another to donate..to a school, women’s shelter, homeless shelter..or even to someone you see in the street who looks cold. Blessings!
