An easy newsboy cap knit from bottom up with brim picked up afterwards. The hat is supposed to cover the ears, but if you want a smaller hat, you can start decreases a little earlier. The basketweave st is intended to be loose so as not to ruin a nice hairdo/curly hair, but if you prefer a hat that sits a bit tighter, please do use smaller needles for that section (I recommend US 7.)

Pattern available in English and Spanish.
