I made this hat of leftover yarns from the Rut cardigan.
If you want it more slouchy, just work some more rows before shaping top.

Techniques:
Provisional cast on
Folded brim
Mosaic
Helix knitting

The entire work is knitted in DOUBLE yarns - one thread Kid Seta and one thread Cottonwool 3 Organic held together throughout.
A wonderful combination that gives a very nice garment to knit and wear.
