I loved this soft hat at first & it looks just like this picture but after a couple of weeks wearing it occasionally, it has stretched out too much. My head is a smaller than average but normal for a woman. I can wear it but I can't look down with my head or it falls into my face or totally off. It's aggravating to say the least. I love the color and it's pretty but now I can only wear it while I'm at home. I'd try to shrink it but the yarn must be the type that loosens back out in a short time period.
