This pattern can be found for free online at http://jessieathome.com/vines-twigs-slouch-hat/

The cables and post stitches running up this slouchy hat are reminiscent of vines and twigs - which is where it gets it’s name. This is a great project for someone just learning cables, or for the more advanced crocheter. It can be made in nearly any size and goes well with the Vines and Twigs scarf I posted a couple weeks ago. So grab your hook and show off your skills!
