My love for slouchy hats knows no bounds – hats can be some of the quickest projects, with so much potential for new techniques.

This hat features a built-in folded brim, which will keep your slouchy hat from falling off and keep you extra warm :) The simple colorwork chart is easy to memorize, and the hat can easily be adapted to fit babies or children if needed!

Here is a link to the project page for the sample.
