Another copy-cat item.
My friend asked if I can make it for her grandson.
Sure!!!! LOL!
The link to Etsy shop where she saw the hat - here.

Cannot really say about the yarn -

• Bernat Satin, sport, 2 strand in Jade & Clear Sky
• Lion Brand, Homespun, Earth
• grey is from my stash.

The pattern for the beard (on 36 sts) I found here. Thank you!!!
Still need to find a 2 y.o. model to try it on and to mark the buttons placement.

PS - picture on the bottom is the prototype, taken from Etsy TheRuggedWoodsman listings.
