This is my version of the Combination Summer Hat made specially for a friend. He requested a beanie that would be breathable in the hot Summer and would hold back his growing dreadlocks. How long this will take you depends on your crochet and knitting skills. I edited the version linked here to make it longer just by adding rows. Also, I changed colors every row to make it more interesting.
