Ripple Lace Messy Bun Hat

"Looking for a new messy bun hat to add to your collection? Pick up your hook and crochet this easy Ripple Lace Messy Bun Hat. You'll be so glad you did. I really wanted to try out the Lion Brand Jeans yarn and picked up a few skeins at my local Joann. I didn’t have a particular project in mind so I played around with a few ideas and finally fell in love with this stitch pattern called Ripple Lace. It looks great paired with this yarn! Then I wanted to turn it into a hat and had to adjust the stitch pattern to work in the round and this hat was born.
