If the general public insists on calling crochet a granny hobby, then maybe we just lean into that a little for this hat. The Granny Slouch is a quick project using a single skein of bulky yarn. It promises to be extra warm for your ears and hang out fashionably everywhere else.

Adding a second skein to fill in more granny stitches in the gaps the first skein leaves would add any additional warmth required. Use the same colorway for a great blend or a high contrast yarn for a super pop!
