Rainbow Slouchy

Design by Marie Segares/Underground Crafter.

This mesh, rainbow striped slouchy hat is a cheerful accessory to wear in transitional weather. This pattern was designed for donation to Knit the Rainbow, a charity that distributes handmade clothing and accessories to homeless LGBTQ+ youth. This pattern is part of my charity spotlight series of free crochet patterns designed for donation.
