Adjust the number of rows to get the desired height. Make sure to end on a Row 3 repeat.
Fasten off leaving a long tail of Color A for closing the top of the hat.
To close the top of the hat fold in half so join is in the center, sew through both sides at the top.
You will have two open circles at the top your hat, bring the center of one circle in and sew through the center and back through the first stitch made, then bring in the center of the second and sew through the center and back through the first stitch made.
Now you will have four open circles, bring the center of each circle into the middle and stitch closed. You will have eight open circles.
One at a time bring the center of each circle into the middle and stitch closed. Fasten off and weave in ends.
With Color A, use a pom pom maker to create a nice round pom for the top of the hat.
Attach to the top of the hat and weave in all remaining ends. To keep your pom removable, simply tie a bow on the inside of the hat.

Fringe:
Cut 22 -18” pieces each of Color A and Color B.
With a tapestry needle, thread beginning tail down the first st and into the space where the first fringe piece will start.
Knot the strands of Color A and strand of Color B together.
Then fold an 18” piece of Color A and Color B in half and thread through the space between the single crochet stitches with your crochet hook. Pull the strand through from front to back.
Draw the knotted ends through and then draw the tail ends through and pull tight.
Separate the Color A and Color B strands. Twist the Color A strands around the Color B strands tightly all the way down. Tie a knot and adjust to the length you prefer (approx. 4-5”)
Trim the ends 1-1.5” from the knot.
Repeat these steps across the edge of the scarf, knotting the tails together and adding two folded strands to each knot before creating the twist. Adjust the knots to match as you go. Repeat on the other side.
Weave in any remaining ends.
