This hat is a perfect quick project for any age. The slipped stitches highlight the smoothness of a single-ply yarn and is traditional with a modern twist. The pattern is continued throughout the crown shaping. Add a large pom pom if you wish to give it some whimsy, or some extra length to wear it slouchy, it's easy to customize it to your preference.
