This hat was designed to be squishy, stretchy, and soft. Two brim styles are provided. Classic cable knits are a great look; your yarn choice can make it work well for anybody! An extra pattern repeat added to the child sized hat allows it to be worn with the brim folded when young & without the brim folded when older for longer wear. Coordinates with my MAS Slouchy Legwarmers.
