Another easy knitted hat

We seem to be on a rented movie marathon at my house. I think it has something to do with the post holiday decompression.

Mostly rainy and cloudy here during the winter, it’s perfect to cuddle up on the sofa and knit or spin.

I found some yarn in my stash and I’m off.

Easy Ribbed Hat (made with bulky yarn)

I used the magic loop method, see here for help

Cast on 64 stitches, being careful not to twist stitches

Start your decreasing
