a feminine brim because … lace!

simple short rows (after the wrap & turn, no need to pick the wraps up as they hide in the edge of the lace).

early back crown shaping, that hand in hand with the shorty rows, create a good fit in the front and eliminate too much slouch in the back.

balance achieved for ‘just the right’ slouchy hat.

note: a single skein of ‘suri delight’ will make 1 ‘szlak’ and 1 ‘szlakow’ or 2 hats total of either pattern in either size.
