Styles and Texture

Hi Crafters ,
As we are getting more hats I noticed that there are still not many for Adult men or youth . It would be great if any of you crafters have some darker tones of yarn and are able to make some hats for men. I know that there aren't many patterns for men and if anyone has some patterns that are different from the ones listed.. it would be great to be able to share them if possible. Texture of the yarns are still important, the softer the better along with being washable. Thanks again for all the great work thats been coming in .
