Slouchy Hat Crochet Pattern

When fall and winter time comes round, I pull out my favorite kinds of hat: the slouchy rasta hat. They are extremely comfortable and warm to wear, and they are very stylish. I absolutely love them, and they go with any and everything. These hats are always big sellers for me in the winter and fall time, so I decided to post the pattern because they are so popular.
