This hat is completely basic and completely perfect! The hat is simply a double rib so can fit anyone. You can either wear it with the bottom turned up, or leave it down and sloppy.

The pattern is written for knitting flat and in the round, so choose your preferred method. Have fun with colours - you can use a contrast colour for the rim, or stripe in different colours on the main body of the hat. And of course you can finish it off with a pom pom!

You will need 4mm and 4.5mm (US6 and 7) knitting needles (either straights of 40cm circulars if knitting in the round).
