This hat has a slouchy fit designed with the American flag in mind. The broken stockinette stitch at the top honors the white stars while the red and blue yarns tie in the other elements of the flag. The American flag was my inspiration for this design, and I so look forward to seeing the different color combinations that may inspire you!
