Bow hat [knitting pattern]
While browsing around online I came across this cute hat. I think the bow on top is a great alternative to a pom pom! I decided to switch up the design a bit by adding the wide ribbing. I hope you like it!

Hi I love this, how many balls of yarn did you use?
Thanks! 1 ball (100g / 3.5 oz)
oops sorry also meant to ask is this worsted weight or bulky?
worsted
thank you Gina : )
I love this hat! And I much prefer your knit version to the one that served as your inspiration. 🙂
Question: Would it be possible for you to share a video tutorial, drawing, or some sort of visual aid for we folk who aren't too experienced in knitting?
Thanks =)
There are some videos on my YouTube channel that show the basics of knitting. I hope this helps!

You have the best projects! This is soooo cute.
For your bow hat – you state – "to the last two stitches" – are we supposed to knit those stitches in each row? Thanks.
I can see how that wording is confusing- my apologies! I update the pattern.
So glad I came across this pattern Ty
I love this cute pattern – thank you for sharing and for providing easy to follow instructions.
