Neil’s Slouchy Hat

I designed this hat with my husband, Neil. He wanted a hat that could be pulled down and cover more of his ears and neck or worn further back for an extra slouchy look. And so Neil's Slouchy Hat was made! It is made from a 50% cotton and 50% acrylic yarn so it is soft and breathable, and washes nicely.

You can sell your completed item! Just credit me as the designer.
