This slouchy hat is a breeze to make, hence the name in the title. It is made from the bottom up and is the perfect hat for spring.
The yarn used is Stylecraft DK yarn and while it is sold mainly overseas, I have purchased mine from a wonderful reseller here in the States. She has fair prices and ships super quick! You can purchase atTexas Yarn Farm.
This hat should take you about 3-5 hours depending on your skill and fit a teen to a woman (20”-22”)
