  Step 2

  When I watched the Swedish olympic team (last winter) enter the event, I went nuts over this hat! It was crocheted and not knitted, like the other team hats. So...I had to have one. I worked a while and eventually came up with this version of my own.

  Step 3

  What I really liked about these hats is that they actually did have that "slouchy" part in the back. The whole team was just spectacular when they walked out onto the floor! These colors together are so beautiful too!
