This woman’s size “Yeti” beanie (appropriately named by my 3 year old) is knit with bulky weight yarn and is a fairly quick-knitting project. The thick yarn and the fair isle colorwork make the hat extra warm and plush.

I included both written and chart instructions for knitting the body of the hat, depending on your preference. The decrease rounds are only listed as written instructions.
