Hat Chamallow is a fast-and-easily-knitted hat. Its earflap form, inspired by aviator’s hat, will cover the head (of course), the ears and the back of the neck of our mischievous children !
It is knitted from the bottom-up, in the round to begin with, then flat for the ears and back of the neck. A dot stitch appears at the top thanks to kfb increases and an I-cord edge finishes it all nicely.
Pattern includes schematics and written explanation.
