I’ve always loved the way single knit stitches resemble hearts, and I designed this soft pompom hat named after my hometown of Loveland, OH to highlight them. The winter doldrums can always use a bit of love and cheer!

This is a fairly easy knitting pattern, and the techniques you will need to know are knit, purl, k2tog, and simple stranded knitting as well as knitting on double pointed needles.
