This hat has that perfect Parisian slouchy beret shape. The beret is knit in stockinette with a cute garter stitch detail at the top. I recommend knitting the rib start tightly so the hat stays clings more to your head at the opening. You can also try adding in a thin elastic string to serve this purpose as well. This is knit on straight needles and seamed together.
