A simple and striking effect, this hat is such a quick knit, you can start and finish it easily in one evening. Leave it as is for a fun beanie, or add the crochet visor for an updated look.

This pattern is knit with 60 yards of super bulky yarn, 90 yards if you include the visor. I would consider this an easy pattern, you just need to know knits and purls and basic decreasing. the hat is knit in the round. Basic crochet skills are needed to add the visor.
