Today I have another installment of the Wildwood Collection. So far we have the cowl and chunky hat and today I am bringing you the Wildwood Slouchy Beanie.
This hat is worked in rounds from the bottom up using a worsted weight yarn. I chose Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in the color rust so it would complement my stripey cowl. I also added a couple cute wooden heart buttons from my stash to the brim and finished it off with a yarn pom-pom. I think one of those trendy faux fur poms would look really awesome too.
I have had alot of fun putting this collection together for you and I hope you have been enjoying these patterns.

Love the pattern so far. I’ll be turning mine so the inside will be the outside-has more texture when I do it this way, and that first chain row is hidden. Thank you so much. Lovely pattern
Just finished this hat. I used woolease regular worsted yarn. The hat is beautiful and the fit around the band is perfect.
I’ve made several of these hats as they are so easy , and your instructions so clear. Good Job ! I’ve crocheted since I was 11 ~ that’s 66 years . Over the years with moves I’ve downscaled or lost crochet stitch or pattern books . How wonderful to have it all on my i pad.
