Notes

A slouchy old-school style Bears hat based on this pattern and ideas from:

http://image.yesstyle.com/assets/89/441/l_p1021644189.jpg
http://www.cubworld.com/product/CBCKC/Chicago-Bears-Child...

And of course Mike Ditka.

Notes:

  • Added a pom-pom

  • I was slightly unhappy with the length as written, so I folded the brim on itself, ironed, and tacked it. It wouldn’t bother me so much if there wasn’t a chart on the hat, but I think it looks much better this way.
