Pattern Inspiration

My husband actually requested this hat! He liked a thick brim on a hat and wanted something slouchy too!

So I set out to create it and decided that this hat was very versatile and could be made as a beanie or a slouchy hat!

The long brim is nice because you can wear it as is or you can fold the brim over, like I did pictured here!

Pattern Details

This pattern is a bottom up workup. The brim is created first and then you work up the body of the hat. At the top you will work decreases and, with a yarn needle, cinch the top closed.

You will need worsted weight (#4) yarn for this project. I like to use Lion Brand Heartland yarn for this project.

Heartland has 26 beautiful colors to choose from. Many of them have a gorgeous rustic look to them, making it great for this yarn.

However, any worsted weight (#4) yarn will work. Just be sure to check gauge!

This pattern comes in sizes toddler, child, and adult. It is meant to have a bit of a loose fit, so if you’d like a tighter fit, go down a size.

You can really get creative with this hat by the color yarn you use and how you construct the hat. The long brim looks great as is, or you can fold it up over the hat.
