This pattern is part of the Slouches Collection.

Monochrome stripes of Birch and Pebble give texture to this exquisitely soft, slouchy hat. Three lines of decrease make a geometric-looking crown, while short rows subtly enhance the hat’s slouch. Pattern includes illustrated tutorials for German Short Rows and a tubular cast on. Slouch 3 is worked in the round from brim to crown using knit, purl, and k2tog/ssk decreases. The pattern instructions are written only.
