A simple, slouchy hat pattern for beginner and advanced knitters! Estelle Yarn’s Alpaca Merino Chunky is a great first-hat yarn because it’s soft, easy to work with, and knits up quickly using 6mm needles. Knit in the round, this hat features a easy k2 p2 rib edge, foldover brim, and simple crown decreases - if you’ve never knit a hat, you’ll find this project very straightforward and easy to follow.
