Ripley Hat

"Ripley Hat is a squishy, soft, wonderful winter Beanie in three sizes for toddlers, children, and adults. It begins with a ribbed band, and then changes to reverse stockinette, but with an interesting staggered pattern between the ribbing and reverse stockinette. It uses 150 yds or less of worsted/4 weight yarn in a pretty, speckled, color shifting colorway. You can use 40 inch circular needles like I did for Magic Loop Method, or you can use DPNs."
