Slouchy beanies are a popular feature on the heads of the famous and their kids, and now you can knit one up for just about anyone thanks to the Leisure Arts booklet Celebrity Slouchy Beanies for the Family by Lisa Gentry. (Compare Prices)

This collection of seven designs includes a basic Stockinette slouchy, a trimmer-fitting ribbed hat, a couple of feminine cabled numbers and a Seed Stitch topper for adults and a simple striped hat and a reversible textured number for kids. The projects are all relatively easy, especially if you have experience with the simple shaping required in hats and have turned a cable or two in your time.

A companion crochet book includes a further seven patterns for generous hats knit from Granny Squares, textured stitches, stripes and more. Either way, they're fun, fast projects that will get your ready for the cooler weather that's sure to be around the corner.

If you're looking for more fun slouchy hats, check out my Slouchy Hat pattern as well. It's a quick and easy knit in a novelty yarn or plain wool.
