Tall slender vertical stripes of alternating colors enhance this playful hat with an added benefit in that the stranding provides just that small bit of extra yarn to make this hat warm and cozy. By experimenting with different color combinations you can make this fun hat as sophisticated or playful as you like.

This pattern is written in five sizes from Child Medium to Adult Large. Calling for three skeins of yarn, you may be able to get two hats.

The pattern offers THREE options for finishing the top: cinching it up, adding a pompom, or using a knotted I-Cord knot -- your choice.

HAPPY KNITTING!
