I have used other patterns for making my basic beanies and, no offense to any of them, I really hated that seam on the back. So, this pattern uses continuous rounds to achieve a seamless look. This pattern has only been tested by me so far, so any comments or suggestions are welcome!
The thing that I like about this basic hat is that it is very versatile. You can add a few rows to fold up the edge or add many more rows to make it more slouchy. If you have a pretty flower hair clip, clip it to the hat! Add a big button to the side or two buttons stacked or a set of four buttons. Weave in a ribbon cord and tie a bow. Pin a brooch on the side or add a pompon to the top. The combinations are endless and one hat can give you a plethora of looks! You can go with a basic color like black or white and it will match anything, or you can go funky with fun colors!
