This hat uses short row shaping to create a wider section so that the brim can be folded up, giving your noggin extra warmth and an asymmetrical accent. The brim can also be worn unfolded and pushed back for a slouchy effect. A loose bobble stitch gives density and textural interest to the main body of the hat.
