This hat is knitted flat on straight needles in stockinette stitch, then seamed. Stockinette stitch is the classic technique of knitting on one side and purling on the other. The pictured hat is knit with worsted yarn, but the pattern includes directions for bulky yarn too; you may use any yarn that will provide the required gauge.
