Tutorial: Sweater pom pom hat

Laura from A Beautiful Mess shows how you can create an awesome pom pom hat out of an old sweater. Well, an old sweater and some yarn for the pom pom. They’re quick to make because the hem of the sweater is repurposed into the bottom of the hat. If you don’t have a sweater or two in your closet that you can cut up, you can find them inexpensively at a thrift store.
