I designed this crochet pattern with my version of a modified X stitch. I dear how the stitches line upward diagonally and create a neat, highly textured wait. And so many hats are worked with plain half double or double crochet at the crown and the pattern starts several rows down from the meridian, but I wanted this hat to exist Ten stitches from crown to band! It's a trivial tricky to become this washed, just if you take your fourth dimension and take a look at the pictures, you lot volition surely have success.
I originally designed this hat for a friend's daughter. The young lady is quite picky when it comes to her way accessories and I was delighted that she loved this chapeau. I added a double layered flower for her hat, only of grade, you tin can decorate any way you lot like or not at all!
I think information technology looks sophisticated with a decorative button or 2.
I used Caron Simply Soft yarn for the get-go two hats. You can find a nice selection at Annie'due south.
Use analogous colors to make a striped hat and use up those leftovers balls. Add a beautiful beast button for a playful flair.
The pattern is easily modified for a slouchy await as well. Just add together a few rows to the length to achieve the "slouch". I love the variegated shading of the Ruby Centre Unforgettable yarn I used for this slouchy.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Even though I designed this hat for a young lady, you tin can easily adjust it for a male child too (they like texture as well right?) and with sizing from Newborn to Developed, you can take fun experimenting. I hope you enjoy making this quick project and will share your finished pictures on my Facebook.
