This ultra-cozy hat is knit in the round from the k1, p1 edge up and features neat stockinette panels divided by three-stitch slip-stitch ribbing. The full-fashioned shaping at the top is just like the top of a mitten.

TIP: The three-needle bind-off, used to join the open stitches at the top, is great for when you want a stable, non-bulky seam.
