Here is what you will need:

Worsted Weight Yarn

Gauge: 3 to 3 ½ inches width. To gauge the circumference of the head use a scrap piece of yarn to measure around the largest part of the head. Decrease final measure by a half inch for the snug fit.

NOTE: You will chain the amount that equals the length of yarn, sl st together (make sure not to twist the chain)

1st Row: Ch 2, hd in same st, *hd in ea ch* sl st to top of begin hd (not top of chain 2)

2nd – 6th Row: Repeat 1st Row

Fasten off.

Edging Top: Fasten onto chain row, chain 1 single crochet in same st, *single in next st* sl st to beginning sc. (repeat one more time.)

Edging Bottom with Brim: Fasten on bottom (where you finished off hdc rows) chain 1 single crochet in same st, *single in next st* sl st to beginning, fasten off
