This pattern is written for one size which will fit most adults. You can use worsted weight yarn and a size 6 or 7 needle to make a smaller version of the hat or headband to fit most kids.

Be sure to pick two colors that are highly contrasting for the best look.

There is a lot of information packed into this pattern and it is a great pattern for anyone looking to start a quick and easy brioche project.

You can choose whether you want to knit a headband if you don’t feel like learning decreases, or you can knit the full hat version which uses a simple brioche decrease stitch.
