A little rework of my Tiers hat pattern, for a yarn that’s a bit bulkier. The crown is done a little differently, too.

Bulky yarns are great for fast projects and this one is fast as well as fun. A simple series of knits and purls in combination make a cute hat that you can finish in an evening. If you prefer a slouchy hat, add more yarn and more tiers.
