I love the look of this messy bun hat. However, I am wondering if anyone has made it longer? Or from the top to the bottom? That way, you would know if it was long enough. I like my hats to cover my ears, especially in the cold winters of Iowa! I think I will have a go at making this hat from the top to bottom, to see if it is big enough for me!

I love the royal purple color of this bun hat! This would make a great last-minute gift that is universally flattering and useful.
