Soldier’s Hat You can buy camoflage yarn in Wal-Mart or Michaels
Size 8 needles You can buy camouflage yarn at Supper Wal Mart. One skein makes three hats Yarn Black camo, brown, or dark green-about 2 ounces Worsted weight
Cast on 72 stitches
Row 1: k2, p2, across ending with p2
Row 2 repeat first row or make one more row to keep the band from rolling Row 3: knit Row 4: Purl Repeat these last 2 rows until the hat is 7” from the start; end on a purl row.
K2 together across the row Purl a row K2 together across the row Last row: purl across Cut yarn about 14 inches, using a large eye needle pull yarn through the remaining stitches , pull tight and sew up the seam. I use the yarn left over at the bottom of the hat to sew up the last part of the seam. These hats go under the helmets so they can not be too large.
