When I made this slouch hat I was outside in the garden and the sun was shining. Well the sun and the color of the yarn speaks for itself. I wanted a new slouch hat for myself and family that would look great on any head.

I love how breezy this hat is. Just staring at it makes you think you are staring right at the sun. The little optional brim just gives it that little extra shade on a really bright day.

This hat uses bulky yarn but can also be made using 2 strands of worsted weight yarn. It is super easy to make bigger by just adding increase rows.

If you are a tight crocheter you might need to go up a hook size to get needed gauge although the gauge isn’t really that important since you are basically making the hat really large and then decreasing to make the rim.

If you have difficulty with front post or back post double crochet you can just use half double crochets to make the band of the hat.

If you have any questions at all please either message or email me @ jmocreations33@gmail.com.

I would love to see any finished pictures.
