The Bauble Slouch Hat

When I was finished making the Bauble Bandana Cowl, I knew I had to make a hat to match. I chose a slouchy style with a slightly loose band. This keeps my curls from going flat when I’m out and about. I love the way the stitch combination looks on this hat! I’ll be sure to throw this one on every day as I head out the door this fall.
The pdf version of this pattern includes photo tutorials for the Bead Stitch, working into the 3rd Loop, and an alternative join method.

Finished Size:
Hat band measures 23”-24”, depending on how tightly you crochet the last 2 rows.
This hat is meant to fit loosely. If you would like a smaller/tighter hat, you can try going down a hook size.

Materials:
I used Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable, which is 100% Acrylic, #4 Worsted weight yarn.
Any yarn of similar weight would work.
Approximately 178 yds.
6mm Hook
5mm Hook
Stitch Markers
Yarn Needle
