I've made three of these hats already. I really love this pattern. It's written using a bulky yarn—11 sc-tbl over 4". So it worked up really fast. The third photo uses a thinner yarn. I got 13 sc-tbl over 4" so I made the largest size and it measures about 21" circumference. There are two versions of the crown shaping in the pattern—one solid and one lacy.


The pattern's available here.

Hi!! Your hat is really pretty. I'd love to make one like that, but my head is so small I have to customize everything. Sigh...Anyway, thank you for sharing!! I think it would look equally pretty in blues.

I agree, I'd love to see it in blues!


You could always use a smaller yarn than what is recommended. With a smaller gauge, the same pattern will come out smaller. That's what I'd do, rather than trying to refigure math.


Glad you like it! :)

Thanx Kristen!! :) I guess I'd never thought about using a smaller yarn & hook. I still have a lot to learn about crochet. BTW, great web site!!
