To Make Up
Cut yarn leaving a long tail. Gather stitches using a Darning Needle, Fasten off.
Using cast on tail, with right sides together, sew back seam of hat.

Cut a small circle of fur for bobble (size optional, I use the small lid on my button jar, draw around the circle and make small snips with scissors, cut out the circle). Using a gathering stitch around the outside of the fur circle, slightly pull tight. Add a small ball of stuffing, pull gathering thread to form a ball shape, fasten off.
Attach bobble to Hat as tightly as you can using a gathering yarn tail. Fasten off
