1 ring stitch marker, 1 locking stitch marker, 1 button (size 1 – 1.25” in diameter)

Pattern Notes:
Use your preferred cast-on method, but the permanent crochet cast-on results in a pretty edge that looks like a crochet chain.

The garter stitch band is knit on smaller sized needles and is folded over with a button attached to it. While working the hat, it helps to place a locking stitch marker where the button will be sewn to have the band form a closed ring.
