Ok, here is my first ever pattern, yay me!!
This pattern came about because my dad said if he had a headband with a hole in it, he could wear his favorite golf hat to the dome, where he goes to hit balls, in the winter, in Michigan. So I made him one, and then a few more to match all his ballcaps, then I made them for hubby and mom too.
If this pattern is like another it is purely coincidental.
If you find an error, please let me know and I will correct it.
Other than that, make a bunch and have fun!!

What a really clever idea!! My son always wears a ball cap, and I'm going to make him one of these today! Thanks!
Oh cool.
I am going to try this, Thats EXACTLY What Jacob and I need for those cold mornings when we are down in the deer Stand :)
Thanks :)
One thing I found is the guys I know 'curve' their bills on their golf hats - so this doesn't work so well for them for that use - HOWEVER - our family only rides bikes all year round - and we have some very cold winters (upper midwest) - and when I put this on my face over my glasses (where the baseball cap bill would go through) my son said - hey that would be a great face mask if it were longer and closed at the top - so - I am going to try crocheting in a tighter single crochet around one end down a ways so it goes to the neck bone - then up from the top and then put a 'chain stitch' tie through the loops at the top to pull it tight like a hat - yet can be opened up and used like a cowl if need be. Just one thought on a GREAT idea - my son has asked for one already (though he wants his to be just closed at the top - just wants to have the pull on face mask that goes down to his neck - though maybe I'll try to put in a small slit for a mouth on his - and just start with a wider chain to make it all one direction - and go from there!) I'll post again if it works out!
