NOTA: there is no instructions for the Chickadee Ski Hat -front cover of the book. However, you may knit it using the general instructions for Ski hats at the beginning of the book, and the charts p. 27 and p. 29.

The ski hat pattern begins with a selvage deep enough to cover the ears… The body begins with the border, followed by a bird or beast design and a second repetition of the border. Each hat ends with a wheel-shaped crown.
