Yarn:
1-2 skeins dk weight yarn (I used 1 skein of 231 yards / 100 g dk weight yarn held double for a size medium and used every bit of yarn)

yarn is held triple throughout the entirety of the hat to create a chunky weight fabric. Alternative: You could always use 1 full skein and use about 40-50g of another color for the inside of the brim (first 3” or so of knitting)

You can always use about 150 yards of weight 5 chunky yarn as an alternative.
