–US N/15-10.00 mm crochet hook…check gauge…feel free to change hook size to get the correct gauge. Gauge is very important.
–Tapestry Needle (for weaving in ends)
-Flexible Measuring Tape
I love how Vanna’s Choice yarn, by Lion Brand Yarn, works with this pattern. It is so soft and comfy and was a great inspiration for the pattern name! The neutral colors of Taupe Mist and Linen go together so well to create a really cozy look and feel. There are so many wonderful colors to choose from to create the perfect look. I especially love all the Autumn inspired colors available. You can use so many different color combinations of yarn to create a slouchy hat for all occasions. It also looks great using two strands of the same color. Your creations are endless with this fun pattern!
Gauge:
The gauge is 8 1/2 sc X 10 rows = 4 in x 4 in
Notes:
-For R1-R28: Make sure you are joining into the first sc.
-* means repeat what is between them
-Ch=chain, sc= single crochet, sl st= slip stitch, st(s)= stitch(es)
-Count your stitches after each round to be sure you do not miss a stitch
Instructions: Hat will be worked wrong side out (back of st out). Turn right side out at end to wear.
