Keep warm and stylish on chilly days with gorgeously soft yarn and an eye catching spiral pattern. The loose fitting slouch beanie style is so comfortable, you’ll never want to take this hat off!

Techniques Used
Tunisian simple stitch, increases & decreases.
Back loop single crochet used for band.
USA terminology used

Materials
Standard crochet hooks 3.5 & 6.5mm
2 50g balls of yarn in contrasting colours. There will be a small amount leftover.

Sizes
This hat will fit an average size adult. The fit is loose and slouchy. Other sizes can be made by making less or more increasing rounds at the top of the hat.

A video is available for the joining method for the stretchy band. I haven’t added this into the pattern itself yet - I may update this pattern eventually! In the meantime, here is the link: blsc joining video tutorial
