CROCHET VERSION HERE

There’s nothing so useful as a knitted item that fits one and all. This hat will fit a small head (like mine!) with that stylish slouchy look and, at the same time, fit an extra large head (like my husband’s!) in a traditional beanie style. One hat, one gauge! This is a real one-size-fits-all hat!
