My niece asked for a bun hat for Christmas. She’s a stylish young lady, so the “messy bun” patterns I found just didn’t seem to fit her. I came up with this hat when I tried adapting two patterns to achieve a hat as stylish as my niece.

The slip-stitched brim is nice and stretchy. It fit my 6-year-old as well as it fit me. The body of the hat is thick and textured for a stylish yet functionally cozy hat..
