Chicago is called the windy city for more than just it’s politicians. It’s cold in the winter. This hat was created when I decided that the hats I had made in the past just weren’t cutting it anymore. I was tired of my ears being cold all the time. So I grabbed some super chunky yarn and a big hook and whipped up this hat in just a few hours. My ears haven’t been cold since.

This hat is super fun, super easy, and super quick. And it doesn’t use too much yarn to boot! Not to mention that it has a pompom, and you just can’t beat that.
