My then-boyfriend (now-husband) had a beanie he wore a lot during our first few years of dating. It got lost somewhere along the way between our houses, so I recreated it. It’s become my go-to hat and whenever his ears get cold, he grabs one. Whenever he loses another one he’s very upset (even though we have dozens in the house) because “you made that for me.” This slouch beanie is cozy, stretchy, and adaptable for any head size.
