I love this hat. I always wear my hair up, so I never wear a regular beanie/hat. I made this for myself out of some vintage wool that I had, and it is wonderful. I hardly ever take it off when the weather is cold. This is a very easy pattern that anyone could make.

Wow, I see pictures and patterns for these hats everywhere. I have yet to actually see anyone in person wearing one though. Could be a regional thing. The colors chosen for this hat are awesome and so boho chic. If I had long enough hair for a bun/pony tail, I would definitely want one in these colors.

Talk about a coincidence. My daughter in law just asked me today if I make messy bun hats. I had no idea what she was talking about. Then I saw this. I said, oh, you mean a pony tail hat? I must say this is a very easy one to make and I love double crochet. So now I have to hurry and make one up for my daughter in law for Christmas.thanks for sharing this easy pattern.
