Ski Ball Cap  
Designed by Heather Hill  

PATTERN NOTES  
The season for skiing is finally here! The beginner-friendly Ski Ball Cap features a touch of stranded knitting. The "ball" is in the form of fun pom-pom on top of the cap. After all, what's a hat without a pom-pom? This uber-soft hat will keep you warm when you're hitting the slopes, but with the addition of nylon it is sure to stay in excellent condition for many ski trips to come.  

The Ski Ball Cap is knit circularly from the bottom up. Do not cut yarn after each color change. Instead, carry unused color up the side of the work.
