These
hats are not meant for heavy duty outdoor warmth,
they are mostly for sleeping in to help keep the head warm at night.

Adult Hat measures 9.5" tall.
That includes the roll up which only
rolled a couple of rows.
It measures 8.5" across the front of the bottom of the hat. Use
36 peg loom (3/4" apart)
2 strands pink Simply Soft Yarn (2 oz or so)
(or any color you wish as long as you keep the white rows in there at
the top)
E-Wrap loom 2 times around, then lift bottom e-wrap over top e-wrap.
(knit)
There is NO brim on this hat. Just knit, and it will naturally roll up
a little.
E-wrap around each peg on the loom one time now (so you always have 2
rows wrapped to knit).
Knit 20 total rows in pink, change to white
(white is to represent the Angels
watching over them at night) Now,
knit 5 rows in white. Change back to pink and knit 3 more rows. Gather, remove. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can also make these for kids
