Schoolyard Pom-Pom Hat Crochet Pattern

October 9, 2020 by Bethany Dearden Leave a Comment

Aren’t Octobers wonderful? We took a drive through a local canyon and the timing was perfect for seeing the beautiful fall colors. I love having the option of slippers and scarves in the evening, but also opening the windows in the afternoon and letting in the perfect warm breeze.  It reminds me of the excitement of the new school year, and how fall melts into winter. Before you know it, bundling up isn’t an option anymore but a necessity. This simple and cute Schoolyard Pom-Pom Hat is a fun, quick project and will keep your little student warm during recess and cozy while dashing to the school bus.
