From the book: “Soft, bulky, fuzzy…anything goes when knitting this hat. Try using yarn from your latest project or experiment with a new yarn. A soft dense knit is desirable - the stiffer the yarn, the scratchier the hat. In this pattern, the cuff turns under to the inside of the hat for an attractive hem, and an easy felting technique completes the design.”
