This hat is a GREAT way to use those scraps of yarn hanging around your house.

All hats can be made for sizes newborn through adult. GREAT way to use up left over yarn.

Bells do not have to be added to Banana Curls, but on little girls they just add to the fun.

If a Little Girl has short hair, this is a way to give her a pony tail that moves as she walks.

Pony Tail Hat - shown in Deborah Norville Soft Worsted Weight
I have THICK hair and a BIG head. That said, I am growing my pony tail one more time to donate it to Pantene for wigs for women.

However, it has been YEARS since I wore a pony tail in the winter and my ears are already cold. This led me to make this hat.

It is bulky and warm. I wanted to make it as warm as possible, using the yarn I had on hand, so I added more yarn to make the turn up brim wider. This way, my ears will be covered by two thicknesses.

I have included a picture of the hat, without the corkscrews attached. I like the corkscrews, they just add some fun to the hat.

If you wish yours to be plain, I have included a picture of the hat before it was finished to show off the plain pattern.

100% of the purchase price for the pattern goes to no kill shelters in Western New York and my home state of Indiana.
