Ten minute fleece hat. It was really cold and windy this morning when we walked the dogs and my brain wandered a bit and came up with this idea. It is made from two rectangles of fabric with the pom-pom made by snipping along one long edge after gathering the top of the hat. I used fabric from the cheap fleece blankets as polar fleece is rather thick to use two layers.

The hat is adorable, I would love to make one with my granddaughter. Would you mind sharing the measurements on the fleece? Thank you.

They need to be cut wide enough to go around the head whilst stretched a bit. My pieces were 55cm x 45cm.

Very cute!!
I see no embroidery on it, seems a waste of a palette!!!
I made a hoodie scarf for my daughter...that was a waste of a palette also as she wasn't keen on an embroidery...sigh....

how did u hold it at the pom poms???please
Carolyn I have made many hats similar. Measured circumference of head and added 5cm for seam allowance. There are two ways of holding the fabric together at the top. Method one is to use a small amount of fleece which is tied around the fabric, method 2 was to tie the lot up with a elastic band. Method one was preferred but spare fleece was not always available. Fleece hats are great fun to make, very quick and if there is a mistake with the sewing the stitches have usually sunk into the fabric and no one can see anything wrong. Must have helped make over 600 fleece hats in the past few years
Sue will probably explain her way tomorrow, I like her use of 2 different colours. Very innovative
I ran a gathering thread through by hand (before cutting the fringe) so that it would be even and then tied a piece of fleece around as Caroline said.
Well ok thanks i just might half to try this hugs!!

I love your hat idea!! I have trouble finding a hat that fits. Yours is super cute, so maybe I'll give your design a try.

Looks nice and warm and if you have enough to make a scarf you will have an extra layer of warmth.

My daughter in law has lost all her hair from chemo -- and winter is here. I think I'll try to make one with a pink ribbon on it for her. Thanks for the terrific (and quick) idea.
