Since being on Drupalcon this week, there's been a lot of interest in the Drupal hat.

A message for the non-knitting Drupallers: I don't have time to knit a Drupal hat for you, but I've published the pattern so your favorite knitter in your life can make one for you. Print out this pattern and give it to him/her with your best puppy dog eyes.

A message for the knitters: This is an extremely easy pattern, easily knittable in 1 or 2 days. However, I wrote the pattern in a rush.... I apologize in advance for any errors. If you find one, let me know and I'll fix the pattern.
