A hat for all ages and sizes!

The hat is knit in the round from the brim to the crown. The brim is worked in 1x1 rib. The body is worked in stockinette stitch before working decreases evenly around.

The pattern has been written for making the hat in two colours. You can make it in just one colour - for the correct yarn amounts for one colour, just add up the meterage/ yardage and compare this to how many metres/yards are in one ball of your chosen yarn.

If you’d like to make use of any leftover yarn then you can always add a bobble!
