Crochet Mesh Slouch Hat

This hat is so easy and fun! It’s cozy, but it’s not too warm, so you can wear it year round. My pattern does use FPDC (front post double crochet) and BPDC (back post double crochet) stitches for the brim, but if you don’t already know those stitches this video is a great tutorial!
