Great hat for those who want to enjoy the outdoors, but also want a little protection from the sun. Worked in both single crochet (crown and brim) and half-double crochet (sides), this pattern is easy for even beginners. The entire hat is worked in the round, excluding the optional band. You can accessorize your hat with patches, pins or anything else that makes it fit your personality. You can easily adjust the number of rows to size the hat to meet your needs - the pattern is just a jumping off point for your own creativity!
