This easy pattern has a simple variation that gives you two styles of hats!
For men, the pattern yields a ribbed watchcap.
For ladies, a stockinette stitch yields a cute cloche-styled cap with a rolled brim.
Stripes can be worked into either style.
Either hat can be considered for unisex wear.
The pattern is a fantastic Stash-buster! Don’t be afraid to mix the yarn in any manner you please. (I even tied some of the yarn together, to minimize the ends I would have to work in.)
If you decide to tie knots, please use the ones that don’t come undone! Tutorials are available on YouTube.
