This hat is one of those knits that came to me when I was standing there looking at a rack of yarn. I need a bulky hat but I need it to be a little bit “extra”. I need texture and I need it to just fit but it needs pompoms. One pompom in the back just bugs me when I drive anywhere but a pompom on each side is just about perfect in so many ways.
