Are your little ones constantly pulling their hats off, then losing them? This hat is the answer to the busy knitter mama’s cry for help! This is a super quick knit in bulky yarn, with short row shaping for extra ear coverage that actually cups the ear, completely blocking wind, an optional tie to keep it on, and several top variations to keep it fun. With 5 sizes to cover infants through even the biggest noggin’d grown-up in your family. You can whip this hat up in just a few hours, so the next time someone comes complaining about a lost hat, you can replace it in a “Rushty!”

Requires bulky weight yarn (80-140 yards, see sizing for details), size 11 16” circular and double pointed needles and a stitch marker
