This slouchy beanie rocks! The colors are spot on, modern and subdued. The little rows of ridges make it look like it was a knit hat and not a crochet. Sometimes, as a crocheter, I love the look of cables but I find that most of the time I cannot recreate that look. So, enter the front post double crochet! I have no problem making my own pom poms -) OH! This pattern spans baby all the way to large adult.
