Tamlyn is a cowl can be worn with either end/border up or down and it turns into a slouchy hat (messy bun hat) in a snap.

Knitted in the round in various colors, texture and yarn weight changes. The finishing touch of the hemp cording and the adjustable cord stops let you switch your cowl to a slouchy hat in seconds.
Written pattern with video link.

For head circumferences of 20/21/22/23”.
For smaller or larger sizes the pattern can be adjusted. Add or delete in repeats of 3 stitches. More yarn will be needed for larger sizes.
NOTE: Pictured is a size 21” hat and it’s just a bit loose. Size 20” would fit the 20” head a better. So measure and knit your actual size!
