This beanie was designed using colors that are an important part of my Cherokee heritage. My grandfather was a full blooded tribal Cherokee Indian, and I have always been drawn to the bright and vibrant colors that are commonly seen in Cherokee tribes. I wanted something that would pay tribute to that, and the Cherokee Sunrise Slouch was born. I had a lot of fun designing this slouch. The brim is worked flat, and then joined, and the body of the beanie is worked from the bottom up. You can customize this to fit more like a beanie, too. There are photos to help with the more tricky parts, and as always, I am available to help if you need me. I hope you will love this Cherokee Sunrise Slouch!!
