Morning after what, you ask? After whatever. This ribbed beanie makes a great TV or knit night project and is great for advanced beginners wanting to try their first hat, or seasoned knitters who just want to kick back with something simple. It knits up quickly with chunky yarn and large needles, and the stretchiness of the rib means there’s no worry about sizing; it will fit most adult heads. Make one for yourself and another for a friend! Make the brim as long or short as you like by starting the crown decreases whenever you’re ready. It’s your Morning After; do with it what you will.

Size: Approximately 13” from brim to crown, adjustible. Approximately 9” across laid flat. Will stretch to fit most adult heads.
