this is a simple little hat pattern, quick to knit. if i were to make it again, I’d definitely add another section of welts (with corresponding short rows to restore the lost depth) somewhere else on the hat. i didn’t quite realize they were just in one place, near the ear. but it’s cute, and simple to make, and the faced him will keep my ears warm!

i used 9 grams of the tosh dk for the lining; i can’t find the number of grams in a full skein anywhere, but that’s how much i used.

the pattern was a birthday gift from my dear friend kelly, who lives in texas and in my heart. <3
