Yarn:

You will need 2 x 50g balls of yarn in main colour and 1 50g ball of yarn for embroidery.

From the pattern description:

With its felted appearance and band of stylised embroidery just above the turned-back brim, his cure hat has loads of appeal. Worked in easy reverse stocking stitch, you can make one today and wear it tomorrow.

Fabric, shaping and embroidery are all easy but hand-felting can be tricky.
