The Elliott Bobble Hat is a super chunky, seamless bobble hat knit in the round and finished with a fluffy pompom. 10mm double pointed needles are used to knit this simple beanie in the round, but if you are familiar with magic loop, circular needles can also be used if that is your preference.

The Elliott is the perfect combination of slouch and squish: the ribbed brim at the base of the hat keeps your ears nice and warm whilst the longer body allows for a slight drape to create a casual and relaxed look.

The Elliott Bobble Hat measures at approximately 10in (25.5cm)long from top to bottom of the ribbing. Rib section measures approximately 2.75in (7cm) wide. Designed to fit the average adult head of 22in (56cm).
