To cover the elastic, using a size H/8 hook and two (2) strands of yarn, join the yarn in the last stitch you worked with the right side facing you. Ch 1, go through next st, *[yo, pull through (2 loops on hook), yo go through next st, yo, pull through (4 loops on hook), yo, pull through all 4 loops, yo, go through same st]*. Repeat from * all the way around the hat, then join with sl st.
