Fun bulky slouch beanie with loads of texture. Five panels of Irish moss, framed with vines of twist left, mock cable stitches, come together to form a cool starfish pattern at the crown of the hat.

A folded rim it gives ears a little extra warmth and has a really nice round shape. But, you can also unfold the rim for a beret style beanie with an awesome slouch in the back. If you prefer no fold and less slouch you can work 5 repeats of the moss stitch panels instead of 6. The pattern starts with a tighter gauge for the rim before switching up to larger needles and a few increases for the slouchy style mushroom shape.
