Here is some information you might like to know about the hat pattern:
Fairytale Winter
Grab that skein of worsted weight and dive into this fast and fun hat. The deep ribbed brim is simple and mindless. It could be made shorter if you are using a 100 gram skein.
The Fairytale Lace chart (adapted from a chart in Melissa Leapman’s Stitch Dictionary) is simple with yarn overs and simple increases and decreases. The chart includes written instructions.
The decrease section of the hat is fully-fashioned to continue in the modified pattern to the end. It's a super fun and fast knit!
