Row 34 Hooray!!!! This is the last 'Row' --- No more knit or purl, just measure off 24" of yarn from the needel to the skein and cut there.
Now thread a yarn needle with the cut end and run the needle through the live stitches on your needle to the last stitch and pull tight. Now, matching up the sides making sure that Purl Row on the Right side matches up an sew down the side of the hat.
VOILA!!!!!! You have a hat that will keep you warm and get compliments from everyone!
