Add the Ripple Slouch Hat to your favorites on Ravelry
I’ve always loved the look of a beret style hat, but wasn’t sure a crochet one would stay put very well. So this is more of a beret-style slouch hat that is nice and snug around the brim to keep it in place. I used some beautiful custom-dyed, hand-spun yarn that I won from Spun Ware Over the Rainbow and it was such a pleasure to work with.
