This chunky textured hat is quick to work up and toasty warm, just like a bowl of oatmeal on a cold day! Featuring a twisted stitch brim and decorative crown decreases, it looks more complicated than it actually is. Available in 5 sizes and with lots of stretch for built-in growing room, you can whip up one for everyone in the family and then move on to your gift list.

This hat is very stretchy and is intended to be worn with up to 3” of negative ease - perfect for built-in growing room!

Sizes provided in the pattern - Newborn-3m (13” x 5), 6-12m (15” x 6), child (17” x 7”), medium adult (19”x 8”), large adult (21” x 8.5).

The length can be easily adjusted if you would prefer a slouchy fit!
