Bowie sports big, tweedy stitches. The rainbow marl stripes are created by working two worsted yarns together: a background yarn – which is used for the entire slouchy hat – and six contrast colors, which change every other round.

It’s worked from the top down in joined rounds.

NOTES
1. Heavy worsted/aran weight yarn with a suggested gauge of 12 sts = 4 in./10 cm is recommended for this hat. A light worsted yarn will create a slouchy with a more open fabric.
2. The yarn is used double for the entire hat.
