For sample hat, I used 1 skein of Peaches & Crme cotton yarn in Paprika, and I

had just enough to complete the hat without any additional repeats.

Autumn is my favorite season. I love the rain, the color of the falling leaves and pretty much everything else that comes with

the fall season. So, I just had to design a fun hat to wear while enjoying the brisk days of autumn, or any other day of the year

for that matter. I hope you enjoy this complimentary pattern! Feel free to leave comments on the Ravelry pattern page.
