Instructions

For braid, cut 60 pieces of yarn each 1 yd. [1 m] long. Tie pieces together tightly in the center using a double strand of yarn. Fold in half at the tie. Divide yarn into 3 bunches of 40 strands each and braid. Fasten rubber band or ribbon tightly around end of braid to secure. Trim ends. Repeat for second braid.

Cut remaining yarn into 6 in. [15.5 cm] pieces for bangs. Attach pieces to ribbon with double-sided tape. Position bangs with yarn-covered side of ribbon against inside front of hat. With glue gun, glue bangs in place. Glue a braid inside hat on each side.

Lion Brand is a family-owned and operated business and a beloved American brand since 1878. Today, the business is run by four members of the fourth generation of Blumenthals. It is their passion for yarn, reflected by all Lion Brand associates, that is the secret to Lion Brand’s success.
