This hat is designed to match my fingerless buttoned mitts (available on Ravelry) - and use up the rest of the ball! It features a ribbed band round the lower edge that is knitted to fit and it has a buttoned closure. The whole hat is knitted flat and uses easy knitting techniques with stitches picked up along the edge of the band to make the top. (Info on how to do that when we get there).
It takes 6 x 3/4” buttons for an adult size. The pattern is written out.
