1. Make the hat

Download this base pattern for the hat (It's a free PDF from Jimmy Beans Wool)

Follow instructions for knitting the hat except don't change colors for the stripes. Instead, after making the ribbed section, knit in stockinette until the hat measures about 8" from the edge, then follow instructions for finishing the hat.

2. Add the logo

After you have a hat, get your contrast color and use a darning needle to add the logo using the duplicate stitch technique. Leave two rows of stockinette between the ribbing and the bottom edge of the logo.
