Here are a couple of ways to wear a slouch hat. First, place it on your head so that it covers most of your forehead but stays above your eyebrows. The bottom of the hat should just skim the bottom of your earlobes. Tease the back horizontally to spread out the slouch. This style is great for cool weather.
If warmth is not a factor, you can adjust the slouch by holding the band part with one hand and pulling the hat back with the other. It’s a different look with the hat resting at your hairline in the front and slouching more at the back.

I finished the two slouch hats shown in the photos in a tweed wool blend and was pleased with the vibrant colours and the clearly defined stitches. The method of crocheting the ribbed hat band created a neat knit-like look with good functional stretch.
