This hat is similar to the children’s version, but I have added directions for shaping the top. There are three options for the brim. You can work this hat in plain stockinette stitch in a colorful fashion yarn, or you can customize it by adding the colorwork pattern shown here. Don’t feel tied to those two options, however. You can use this hat as a canvas to express yourself. Try a stitch pattern from Chapter 10, or another pattern that appeals to you.
