This reversible hat is an easy, quick knit, perfect for gifts or for when your kid tells you that they lost their only hat and it is snowing hard outside.
The stitch pattern is quite stretchy, so the 4 sizes written will fit most everyone.

When I was trying to come up with a name for this hat, my friend that modelled it for me suggested, “Lets call it the “Its -23, your friend wants you to climb a fence and fall blindly backwards off of it, and instead you opt for an ungraceful flop that achieves more or less the same thing” hat.“ Obviously, that would be far too long, but it struck me as a good theme for an along! So. Anyone who purchases this pattern, knits it, and posts a modelled photo on their project page of someone falling (safely) off a fence into the snow (or snow alternative if you don’t have snow. Be creative) by the end of December 31, 2014 will be given for a $5 gift code to my Ravelry store. I won’t be sticky about time zones, just make sure the project photo is posted before I get online on January 1.
