Sew together the square until you have formed a tube. Once you have your tube, zig-zag your stitches across the top so your hat will scrunch together. If you want, add a fun pom-pom on top or add a border to the rim of your hat with a different color. Now you have a cozy hat to keep you warm all fall and winter long!
