The Child's Newsies and Braided  hat patterns from Knit One, Crochet Too are knit in stripey and soft Ty-Dy Sandbox, so they won't itch little ears. The Newsies hat is a pint-sized version of K1C2's adult Newsies Cap, with the brim knit in rows and the main section knit in the round. The Braided hat is a winter classic in fun stripes, with braided tassel trim and ear ties. The main section is worked from the bottom up, and the earflaps are picked up at the bottom edge and worked down.
