Rich texture with a little openwork sets a distinctive tone for this warm cap in three sizes (S/M/L). This eye-catching design could appeal to men and women alike; the brim may be worked short and flat or long enough to be doubled for extra warmth. Worked in the round and in an intermediate stitch pattern, this project is an excellent choice for a first attempt at openwork; it is also portable and easily memorized for knitters on the go.

In any version, this design works up beautifully in a naturally squishy, airy fiber—the perfect thing for a single skein of specialty farm yarn. Add a pompom at the top for a playful finishing touch if desired.
