Based on EZ’s Snail Hat from The Opinionated Knitter, this version is about half the thickness. It can be knit from a single wheel of Unspun Icelandic worked 2 ply or 1 wheel of thick Swedish Gradient Ull. Smaller needles are used for the brim only, larger needles for the body of the hat. Easily customizable for size.
