The yarn I used for my hats is Knit Picks Capra. The yarn I used in the worsted weight hat is Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Tweed.
The faux fur pompoms are from this Etsy shop, I used the 4" size:

The purple/pink hat is the larger size, the purple/gray hat is the larger size, the worsted weight hat is the smaller size, the helix knitting (striped) hat is the smaller size.
The needles I use are different Knitter's Pride interchangeable circulars, including Ginger and Dreamz.
I've watched quite a few of your videos and I have to say, the production value is really top-notch. You are friendly and encouraging WITHOUT a lot of unnecessary chit-chat. I love that you get right to the topic at hand. Yours are now my go-to videos for new techniques and refreshers on old ones. Thank you!!

Mine too. I come back every time I need to remember how to do Kitchener stitch!
Hi Stacy, I was listening to your podcast and you were talking about the tendonitis one can get from knitting. As a constant knitter I won’t stop knitting to rest. I have found several things that can help if done the instant you notice it coming on. Massage your arms and hands your self using a roller type utensil. if you use the eraser end of a pencil or your finger find the most painful spot and place hard pressure (the most you can stand) press in that one spot and don’t move it until the pain lessens. Then find a new spot and repeat. Soak your arm or entire body in epsom salt. Repeat every day or give up and have a massage work on you. Sometimes it can be up your neck, and shoulder blades. All those muscles are attached. Also stop holding your phone or iPad while you play games. There are many lotions that can help as well, bengay or theraworx relief are two I go to. Lastly, change up the needles your using or sit in a different chair.
Finished this hat for my grandson. Used Worsted. Made a lovely hat with a warm double edge. Perfect for our Canadian winter that started a week ago lol.
First time using a provisional cast on and I loved it. My son saw the hat I made for his son and I now have a a joyful list of hat seekers.
Thank you Staci.
I am watching you tutorial for about the 20th time. Just because I am very excited about making one. You talk about dpn's. I prefer to use dpn's but I also want to get comfortable with the circular needles. Also, I had cancer about 10 years ago and had some chemo hats that were very itchy, nice soft yarn is very important to me. Thanks for the pattern. Robin
Just finished my first hat using this pattern and I love it! So soft and stretchy. Fun to make.
When I get stuck on a project, you are alway there to bail me out! Thanks for sharing - your videos are always so easy to understand!
soooo true! She's my reference when I try new stitches and techniques! Took me forever to understand the twisted Russian cast-on! loll
I love watching your videos, you don't waste time talking about irrelevant stuff and the instructions are short, concise and clear. 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
I also have to say you are hilarious! “Somebody find me something pointy on this table...oh, a knitting needle”. I’m still giggling about it. I even played it for my husband to enjoy.
I love Staci's videos....she's amazing. I refer her to every knitter no matter what the skill level I know! I wished I'd found her "sooner" than a did.(I found her about 3-4 yrs ago I think!)
Hey thanks! I was one of those who hated DP needles and only used circulars. After your comments, I bought a set and tried again. I find it very relaxing and enjoy not having to deal with the twisting cord. I think my problem was that I tried them years ago when I first started knitting. My tension was too loose so the needles kept falling out and rolling on the floor. I kept getting ladders also. After using circulars, I’ve learned how to close the gaps. No ladders at all with these new DPs! I bought more of them! Thanks for encouraging me to try again!
I thank the Lord for you and your videos! I’m a new knitter, constantly getting stuck on patterns and this just gave me tons of hope and help❤️❤️❤️
I appreciated your discussion on the two types of yarn and their effects on the finished hat.
Staci, it's still Chanukah when you put this out. Thanks for the Chanukah present!
Thank you so much for this generous gift, Staci! I love your enthusiasm, and always appreciate the little tricks that you share and the clarity with which you explain things.
Thank you so much for another wonderful video explaining how to create a double cuff. You add just the right amount of instructions to make it understandable and are well prepared to show all the different steps in the process. You are appreciated.
This is an amazing idea for a hat.. Can't believe there's no baby size.. It's perfect for new borns - no seems and no cast on edge, all soft and fluffy on the little angel's head...
thank you for this pattern! I absolutely love the part where you "unzip" the provisional cast on! So satisfying!
I'm knitting this pattern for the third time this year. My favorite hat to knit as a gift, especially for men
Once again you have made me want to drop my current wip and start on this project.I can not wait until after the holidays when I can knit something for ME! Thanks Staci, you are the best
So sweet...this pattern isn't going anywhere. :) Finish what you're knitting, and this pattern will be waiting for you to knit next.
Thank you for your tutorials. They are always timely, easy to understand and interesting! I am currently working on hats for my grandkids, so I'm trying this on one for the first time. You are much appreciated, a natural born teacher!💖👍🧶
As soon as I’m done knitting one of the socks I’ve been watching you knit I’m going to take on this challenge! Thank you for these amazing guides 🙏🏻✨
Thank you! I love the two-toned look, and it was helpful to see multiple color schemes to get an idea of how different colors will look together. You are the best! I have learned so much from you. You also helped me get over my fear of DPNs, and I agree - they are fun to knit with! Happy Holidays to you and yours! ❤
Ohhhh... looks warm and super toasty. You and your crew are fab!!! Thannnnk you!!!!!
Thank you for sharing this great technique and pattern. I have already made 3 of these for my 2 sons and my hubby. They love their hats and already asked for more in different colors 😊
I wish there was an option to give you 10 thumbs up for this tutorial, Staci! Thank you for this wonderfully well-timed and generous gift. Merry Christmas to you!
I know exactly what you mean about double pointed needles! When the magic loop became popular I was into it, but these last 3 years I went back to dpns. I love them too much and I want them in every type, Cubics are my favourites right now. Magic loop is all right for sweaters, and that’s that.
I just received my poms from FFFabuknits, and they are wonderful! Great service, quality, and pricing! Can’t wait to get started! Glad I ordered them a couple weeks ago from your “attaching a Pom Pom” video because I’ll bet she gets swamped with orders now!!
Great pattern, thanks! I, too, enjoy working with dpns. Learned as a newbie many, many years ago and have no problem with “all those needle ends” which seem to bother so many people. Merry Christmas, Staci !!
Thank you for this tutorial! I combined this with your tutorial on Helix knitting a hat and my first try was a success (at least in my mind). Love your videos and they are my #1 go to for help.
love this! I can use my stash & leftovers to make loads & have them as last minute presents :)
thank you, I find so much inspiration from your videos
Thanks for the great pattern. I have several kids who need a double brim (they live in Montana!). BTW, I love double-points also! I love the way they work, feel and sound. My husband is amazed every time I use them! He's an software engineer and he thinks I am a genius. Lol
Thank you so much. I am finally successfully knitting the February Hat and this video was perfect for knitting to cuff together.
Thanks for that extra tidbit about tightening up the purl stitch on the 2 by 2 ribbing! You have been so helpful with all your videos Greatly appreciated😀
I know I'm late to the party but OMG Staci!!! This is so gorgeous. I wish my work looked blocked while I was knitting it up like your samples do. 😭 This is me crying.
Knitted your double cuff hat in Capra and I absolutely love it. 💗
Love this hat and I love the Pom attached with a button. Such a great idea. Thanks so much for sharing.
I’ve been watching your videos for seven years and love that I still am learning new techniques. I’m going to try this cast on for some socks . (Heidi not Jaana)
Thank you for giving me an excuse to buy more yarn!
Megan None You mean you need an excuse? 😉
Love the hat. Knitting with WOODEN double pointed needles helps making knitting a little easier.
Yes, bamboo needles are also kind to sensitive hands....
My dad and grandpa loved this hat. My grandma's want one now. (I made them cowls this year).
I always considered whether I should attach pompom or not because of the washing of hat.
Thank you so much your helpful tips.
Thank you for the present! Happy Holidays to you and your family. Love all that you do for the knitting community.🎁
OMG, working on a sweater with the KnitPicks Capra. I LOVE this yarn. Now I hope I have enough left over to make this cute hat. Thanks Staci!
The crochet needle part is SO HARD, it's the hardest part of this whole hat. It's maybe because I don't know how to crochet, but I don't want to learn to crochet just for the provisional cast on. Otherwise, great pattern, thanks!
Thanks for the awesome pattern! Happy Holidays and may your holidays be full of love and happiness!!
Im doing this for all my cuffs from now on!
I love, love, love this hat pattern! It is so super soft and stretchy and comfy! I will be making many. Thank you!
I literally loled when you said "I'll tell you what's exciting for me... is to try to do a whole bunch at once.... see how exciting that was?!" lololol I do the same thing and it truly is such a thrill. hahahaha
I just love it so much!! That pom pom method is sheer genius. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I just finished my trial. My knit hat is veririm beatiful.your video helpful very much...
How sweet of you to give us an early Christmas present! Love it🤗
Thank you for this free pattern!
great....thorough tutorial....guess what I will be knitting today.. Just finished a beanie with straight needles....now I have to sew the edge up....we'll see! Thanks...happy knitting!
I absolutely love this hat pattern! Thank you so much for all of your knitting guidance and instruction, it’s top-notch! Happy holidays!
I just did my first provisional cast on, thanks to you. Merry Christmas!
Thank you for the pattern. You made the provisional cast on look so easy, it didn't only look easy it was easy!! thank you
Thank you very much. Happy holidays!
I’ve made many of these hats and everyone loves’em! Tks for this great pattern and tutorials👍
Thank you for the wonderful Christmas gift! The button idea is genius!! Always making my family and friends new hats this time of year to go with the cold weather! Merry Christmas and God bless!!
Thank you so much for the gift of the free pattern and for your generosity all year long with your videos and your enthusiasm. I wish that I could give you a holiday gift, but I will give the gift of my feedback through these comments. Merry Christmas!
Thanks for the Holiday present! I see that your loving your Ginger needle. best of the Holiday Season to you!
Very nice idea, the double cuff! Will definitely try this. And the button idea is great too! Happy Holidays!
you are the BEST, staci! I can’t tell you how many times your videos have saved my life while knitting (just earlier today, I successfully turned the heel on the first sock I’ve ever made thanks to you)!! I can’t wait to make this hat 😊
I just have to say, those decreases are gorgeous! I stumbled upon this after watching your channel all the time. It may be summer now, but I know what I can make for Christmas haha! Never can be to early for gift knitting when you’re a procrastinator.
Also, I’m not against using dpns at all, my problem is with having to go out and feel like I need to buy them in every size! I will probably try and slowly build up my collection of them, but I usually lean towards the magic loop unless it gets to a really tiny amount of stitches.
I am going to try to do this hat today . Thank you for sharing and teaching me .
fantastic ! staci love your channel and designs ive been looking for a hat pattern that keeps me warm and you nailed it thank you brenda xx
A great tutorial and a lovely pattern thank you very much there will be a few people getting lovely hats this Christmas
Just what I needed right now and with a wonderful video tutorial from you. Thank you so much!
I’m so excited that I found this video since I want to knit a hat for my daughter for Christmas and was looking for a way to do the decreases at the top Thanks
Of course it was a brilliant tutorial. They always are! x
After I'm back from Florida, this will be my next project! Thnx Staci for this wonderful tutorial!
I am currently in the middle of knit hats for Christmas. I will try this pattern. Thank you. Happy holidays.
Thank you very much. I've been using buttons behind knots for awhile and they work well.
I really like your tutorials. They're always explained very well and show everything I need for a project.
Thank You for the free pattern and video tutorial. I like the idea of using a button when attaching the pom pom. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 😀
I really love this free hat pattern. I think this is the hat that I'm going to knit up for my Hanna. My daughter.
Love the design of this hat. And thank you! Can't wait to start knitting it. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas Staci!
After watching Knitting Around with Elizabeth Zimmmermann and Meg Swanson, I realized I had been holding the DPNs incorrectly so they were poking me. I haven’t tried using them yet so I hope the experience will be more comfortable.
I hope the pattern is still free because I was still recovering from a fall on my left hand and arm in the 4th week after major surgery, when you posted this video. Thankfully, the X-rays didn’t show fractures. It is just severely bruised and has reactivated arthritic pain. 5 weeks later I’m still struggling to do anything with my left arm which has overworked my right hand causing arthritic pain in that hand. In spite of using the Portuguese Knitting method my hands tire quickly.
My daughter requested a messy bun slouchy hat for her and a hat for my granddaughter to include a pompom so your pattern would be great.
your work always amazes me ... so neat and the co-ordination between the colors is lovely .. you ave a nice taste
I love this hat, love how you put that pom pom on...oh well have to buy yarn for it !
Thank you for this gift. ❤
I so want to knit this hat! Thank you for the great video. Just wanted to say I also LOVE my DPNs!
Hi Staci, Like the button idea🌷👍
Thank you Staci! I have been wanting to try this double cuff on a hat since you posted the video on it a while back - this will make a perfect Christmas gift for my sister!
Great pattern! This reminds me of the double cuff hat with the round loom hat only yours look a lot better. You are the best!
Thanks for the pretty hat pattern and your excellent video. Have a wonderful holiday.
Thank you for all of the great information over the years. You pretty much taught me from far away. I would love to find a good instructional video on how to knit a tube reversible beanie.
Really love your pattern and the double cuff. Thank you Staci! Your video was wonderful!
Oh yay! I've got to try this cuff! Thanks Staci!
This is such a great pattern! I have knitted this many times. Thank you. 🥰
Thank you for the free pattern to this cozy hat! Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
This is a really cool pattern! Thanks for the pattern and the great instructions! Happy Holidays!
I love dpn's but I still have trouble with some laddering where the needles change. Using 5 is better than 4. I love the super thin ones for baby booties.
Thanks for the pom pom tip. A secure but removable pom is a really good idea.
Dear Staci, Thanks for the Christmas present and the amazing tutorials!!
Thank you for the lovely pressie, Stacy! Happy holidays to you!
Love it! Will be making some of these! Thank you for your great tutorials!
Thank You Tracy and I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas! I'm into socks this year got your pattern and will take your advice and start with worsted weight first, as for the hat I will knit this for myself this weekend! It's going to be way below zero over here in Quebec. Forgot to say hats are beautiful...
Thanks so much Staci for the great pattern; I love hats with a double thick cuff and look forward to knitting several of them!
Ooooo weee!! I can not wait to make this pattern! THANK YOU!!
What kind and perfect Christmas gift. Thanks, Staci!
Oh how I wish I had my circular needles at school with me. I have a 120g ball of DK yarn that would make a perfect hat for my dad. I guess his Christmas present can wait a week...
