The patterning of this hat happens due to the yarn--it is much simpler than it appears. Why do the work if the yarn will do the work for you?? Uses less than one skein of a self-patterning yarn, such as Yarn Bee Fair Isle (available at Hobby Lobby).

The pattern uses a single strand of yarn, so it is written for a loom with 3/8” gauge. CinDWood loom with 72 pegs was used for sample.

Includes measurements to make hat for:
Child--72 peg loom
Teen/Small adult--72 peg loom
Average Adult--80 peg loom

This is a simple pattern that uses only U-knit and Purl. A video link is included for the bind off (not my video).
