My favorite winter flavor- peppermint! This chunky knit hat is a sweet treat to brighten the dark, chilly days of winter. A cheerful topping to keep or to give as a gift.
This hat is knit from the brim up with Super Bulky yarn. A tubular cast on makes the brim look finished and neat. The clean edges of the red stripes make the colors pop. And the Super Bulky yarn makes this hat a quick knit.
