These whimsical hats are fun and easy to make. They are knit entirely in the round on dpns, starting at the brims outward edge with pretty decreases to the center. A Latvian Braid makes an easy and impressive looking sash (how to video included).

Such a fun, little pattern! Made in a minute. And I’ve learned a new technique: the Latvian Braid. (Adente)

This little hat can be made in a hour. For the Latvian braid there is good link of how to do it. So no reason to give it a try. (Saphiera)

Adorable little witch hat! So easy and quick. I liked the link to the Latvian Braid video-good refresher for the technique. Now to do one more… (thrsedge)

Cute little hat and a well written, easy to follow pattern! (MinniStitcher)

Knitting the Decorative Witch Hat was so easy, particularly since I already was familiar with knitting in the round. I had never done Latvian Braid stitch before, but the instructions made is really clear, and the results looked great. (fjorlief)
