KNIT STATEMENT HAT

Hey knitters! As you all know, I've made lots of different beanie patterns, and this is one of my FAVORITES!!! Because of this, I wanted to make it available for everyone to wear it. So I made this hat with 3 different yarn weights, and it comes in sizes Newborn, baby, toddler, child, big kid, teen, adult, and large adult! Yessss! I can't WAIT to see your version of this hat! I made a video tutorial on how to make the Medium Version and I will post this pattern right here on my blog. If you'd like the other versions in a .PDF pattern, click here.
