Arctic Blast is a stretchy, super cozy beanie that has a perfect amount of slouch. The brim can be folded up for a different look and for extra warmth. Arctic Blast is worked in the round from the bottom up in brioche stitch. The hat, as shown, was knit using a reversible decrease stitch which makes the hat completely reversible. The reversible decrease is worked over two rounds and can be a little fidget-y, so additional instructions for a non-reversible decrease stitch are also included. A PomPom completes the look!
