“I open at the close.” - Golden Snitch
The Golden Snitch was originally not a ball, but a little magical bird called a Golden Snidget. It was introduced in 1269, when the Chief of the Wizards’ Council, Barberus Bragge, unleashed a Golden Snidget during a Quidditch match, offering a reward of 150 Galleons to the player who caught the Snidget. - Quidditch Through the Ages

This fun design is a great way to learn something new! It’s designed from the crown down to the brim (a top-down hat!), has a fun butterfly stitch, and a decorative bind off. This way of constructing a hat allows you to try it on as you go, provided you use longer cords or dpns!
