11. Make 1 row of slip stitches around the edge of hat.

To Make the Trimming

1. Cut 2 strands of trimming yarn and 2 strands of yarn the color of the hat, each 2 yards long.

2. Lay them together, side by side. Take hold of one end of them with the right hand, and the other end with the left hand, and twist them in opposite directions. Or get some one else to twist one end while you twist the other in the opposite direction.

3. Pull the twisted yarn “taut” or straight. Catch hold of twisted yarn in the middle and fold together taking all the ends firmly in one hand. Let go with the other hand. It will twist itself into a pretty cord.

4. Fasten balls made of the two colors of yarn on the ends of the twisted yarn. Make them as you made the pom-poms on doll’s toque ([page 95]).

5. Tie twisted cord around hat in a bow knot and sew in place on the right side. Turn up the left side of hat in a soft roll.
