With a long cuff that provides multiple options for wearing (fully turned, half turned or flat), this slouch is the ultimate in comfort; it is warm and easy to wear.

Basic stitches (and a few optional non-traditional stitches) are used to create this hat. Choose a beautiful DK/8ply yarn in 2 different colors, or just 1. Use long-color-change, variegated, solid or hand painted yarns to create visually differing results.

ALSO AVAILABLE: Be Smart Mitts - or buy the ebook with both.
