What? Another Hat?
I love the double layer of warmth over the ears of a double knit hat, but honestly double knitting isn't my favorite way to knit. So enter this solution:
I did a crocheted provisional cast-on of the number of stitches based on the Basic Hat Pattern by Ann Budd in The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns. Then I knit the double layer (with purled turning roll, picking out the provisional cast on to knit together with the live stitches. Such a simple idea, but I love this hat! Too bad it is already promised to someone. I will have to make another like it for myself.

That's a great idea. I want to make a winter running hat for my husband, and this would keep his ears warm but allow heat to escape out the top.
Thanks for sharing!
