Sew Hat Back Seam (This is the side that has only stockinette stitch at the edge.)

Make a tassel as follows:
Wrap yarn around a 4-inch piece of cardboard about 20 times. Thread a long length of yarn (about a yard) under the top of the wound strands at the top of the cardboard and tie off securely. Cut the loops at the opposite end of the cardboard. Cut a 6-8 inch strand of yarn and tie it around the bundle of the tassel about 1/2-inch from top. Fasten securely, and pull the thread ends into the middle of the tassel.
With the crochet hook, make a chain 1-2 inches long with the two long strands coming out of the top of the tassel. Use the remaining ends to attach the tassel to the point of the hat.
