Take the GOLD with this cute and super easy pattern. Simple and quick, knit in the round in 1x1 rib. The only shaping is the 2 decrease rounds that close up the beanie.

About 80 yards is all you need to create the beanie AND the fun Pom.

If you’re new to the Tubular cast on, PLEASE give it a go! You’ll love it and it is absolutely critical to get the nice stretchy folded brim. I have included a video link in the pattern. :)
