This hat in super bulky yarn is quick to make -- perfect for a last minute gift or if you just need a warm hat right now.

Someone experienced in crochet can finish it in less than an hour, but even a beginner, who has used the techniques needed for this before, can probably finish it in less than two.

Any super bulky yarn in two contrasting colours should work.

Skills needed:
crochet in the round, starting with a magic ring
crochet in spiralling rounds and in rounds
crochet through back loop only
