through the stitches remaining on the needle. Gather
tightly and fasten, but do not cut yarn.
Sew a flat seam, reversing then seam at the turn-up cuff.
If desired, you may add a pompon or a bow.
This hat may look small. It is supposed to stretch when
placed on the baby's head, so the unseen ribbing will be snug and hold the hat on.
