follows:

times.
- Slide the yarn off your fingers.
You should have a bunch of uniform loops.
- Tightly tie and double knot the center
of the loops with two strands of yarn.
- Cut the loops and trim the yarn to make
nice neat pompoms but be sure not to cut the
yarn used to tie the center of the pompom.
- Attach one pompom to each of the top
corners of the hat. To do this use
your yarn needle to thread each of the four
strands of yarn attached to the pompom
through the right side of the hat to the
inside of the hat.
- Pull these strands taught and tie
securely on the inside of the hat.
- Trim away the excess yarn after tying.
*Stockinette stitch = K1 row P1 row; continue
alternately.
To change the size of the hat, simply cast on
more or fewer stitches and work the stockinette
stitch for a longer or shorter number of inches.
