GRINCH HATS

I call them Grinch hats, they remind me of the hat the grinch who stole
christmas wore.

yarn or bulky yarn.

strand of bulky yarn.

parenthesis.

 Knit all rounds until hat measures  9 (10) inches from beginning edge.

Begin decreasing by randomly decreasing 1 st from each of the 3 double point
needles ( 3 sts decreased in decrease rnd.)
Knit 3 or 4 rows between each decrease row, depending on the length you want
the hat and the amount of yarn you have available.
