30. Sew 2 side edges together with strand of grey yarn by doing a whip st over edges of


knitting. Knot securely at both ends. Make sure to match your design as you sew the sts,


and pick up just the one edge st, both strands.


31. Draw anchor yarn tight and tie to form top of hat.


32. Pom Pom for top of hat: This is where you can get as creative as you would like. You can


top your hat with a long braid of 3 colors. You can add a pompom of a bright color. But


our little pom pom is grey like the hat. So wrap yarn around 3 or 4 fingers, about 35


wraps. Slip it off your fingers, and tie double piece of yarn tightly around the middle of


loops. Using crochet hook, pull ends of yarn thru to inside of hat and tie securely. Pull


ends into knit.


33. Cut loops of pom-pom and shape to desired length, aprox. 1".


34. String Ties for Earflaps: Each tie is aprox 14" in length. This is done as crochet chain


using double strand of yarn. Cut grey yarn aprox 7' long for each string. Insert crochet


hook thru bottom sts of ear flap. Pull loop around and chain a rope with double stand. Cut


and knot when string is long enough. Make second string for opposite side of hat. Trim


bottom, or make small pompom and tie on.
