This slouchy hat is made from luxurious 100% Bamboo. Bamboo is very soft and silky, and gives this hat a nice drape.

The hat itself, is worked up very differently; it begins with the ribbed band around the bottom, then worked back and forth in rows, leaving chained loops on each end.

Once height is achieved, the loops are worked up similarly to hairpin lace.

The hat is then closed off, using decreasing stitches in rounds.

The ribbed band has extra length, creating an overlapping cuff, where you can sew on buttons, a attach a pin, or just sew it together.
