Dream Hat

I haven't posted here for many moons... But I figured this would be a good place to put my very own free knitting pattern! I designed a hat. It's so dang simple but I'm in love with it. Thick and thin yarn is the best! Anyways, thought I'd add it to Ravelry and share it with the knitting world.
