To make this unique cloche hat, you will need approximately 235 yards of bulky weight yarn, and a large decorative button of choice. Pattern is written for a two color hat, but can easily be made using a single color. I would say this is an intermediate pattern, due to the unusual shaping of the asymmetrical brim. Although an adventurous beginner could probably master it as well. Skills needed to complete this hat include: picking up stitches, knit, purl, basic shaping, and knitting in the round.
