Worked from the bottom up, this hat can be made in three stitch counts, using bulky, worsted, sport, or fingering yarn—your choice! That’s why so many yarns and needles are listed--your stitch count and number of repeats of the pattern depends on your gauge, so be sure to work a swatch.

Once you have gauge, you’ll know how many to cast on for the yarn you want to use (in the pattern, the lowest stitch per inch is given first with the others in parentheses).

This could be a great one skein in the stash project or a way to use some leftovers from other projects.
