Ribbed Double Brim Hat with Barley
This hat is a combination of the Barley Hat pattern & making a Ribbed Double Brim. This wasn't difficult to figure out. And I really prefer the double brim to making a long brim that you fold in half. I watched a few youtube videos to figure out how to make a double brim. The one I like the best is here. This hat was given to my brother, Paul, for Christmas.
