Transitus

Transitus... a top-down cloche-style hat with elongated stitches that criss-cross along a purl ridge.

You can knit Transitus with more (or less) slouch depending on how much you like in a hat! The cloche shape is achieved with a short row brim before the edging and bind off.

Transitus is great with (or without) a pom-pom! Totally up to you!
