  1. Cast on the number of stitches you need for your hat on a circular needle using Color A.
  2. Knit for 10 rows for a rolled edge or k2p2 for a ribbed edge with Color A.
  3. Knit 1 row Color B.
  4. Knit 1 row Color A.
  5. Knit 2 rows Color B.
  6. Knit 1 row Color A.
  7. Knit 3 rows Color B.
  8. Continue in this manor always knitting one row of Color A, while adding one row of Color B as you continue up the hat.
  9. When you get to the last few rows of the hat end with Color A to match the bottom.
  10. Sew a button or a pom pom or tassel on the top or just leave it plain.
