I love buying buttons from op-shops and spinning yarn. The hat is designed to use up a little of each stash.

Simply knitted by knitting a garter stitch strip the length of your head’s circumference, then picking up stitches to knit the crown.

The simplicity of the stitch and design showcases the beauty of hand spun yarn.

Skills required:
Cast on, knit, bind off, pick up stitches, k2tog
Can be knitted in the round or flat if preferred.
