Born of my obsession with a couple of discontinued yarns (Chunky Mochi and Mochi Plus) and my need to make every precious yard pop! This easy wearing hat is designed to fit most everyone on your knit-worthy list. With three sizes knit up in three yarn weights (Aran, Bulky, Super Bulky), this pattern can be personalized to the wearer and is perfect for gift knitting. Two crown options add subtle detail to differentiate gifts and to play with different types of decreases. Each size in every weight of yarn is knit in the round and is intended to create a hat with a stout brioche brim with plenty of squish.

You will need two colors of yarn (wool or wool-blend recommended in the same weight. The yardage requirements assume a gauge swatch and a buffer for individual gauge.
