With the main yarn color, cast on 90 stitches. Join the cast-on stitches to form a round, being careful not to twist the stitches.

Round 1: Knit all stitches.

Round 2: *Knit 1, purl 1; repeat from * around.

Repeat Rounds 1 and 2 until the piece measures approximately 7 inches from the cast-on edge or is long enough to fit snugly around your head.

Place Earflap 1 against the folded edge, aligning the center stitch of the earflap with the marked center stitch.

Pin the earflap to the beanie and sew it in place using the yarn needle and a backstitch.

Repeat the process with Earflap 2 on the opposite side of the beanie.

Fold up the other edge of the main beanie in the same manner as before.

Fold the earflaps down over the folded edge and sew them together at the top.

Pom Poms (Optional):

If desired, make two pom poms using the pom pom maker or a fork. Attach the pom poms to the top of the beanie.
