This simple-to-make hat is made from a knitted rectangle! It's the perfect project for a beginner knitter, or anytime you want to make a quick and easy project. You won't have to worry about knitting in the round, shaping, or anything like that. If you can cast on, bind off, and work the knit stitch, you can make this hat!
