It’s not knit but Crochet warm Hat pattern |
- Dc=double crochet
- SC=single crochet
- 2fpdc = 2front post double crochet around the front post double crochet of previous round
- Fp2dctog= front post double crochet 2 together= (decrease)
- Fpdc=Front Post Double Crochet
- Fpsc= Front Post Single crochet
- Dc in top of dc = work a double crochet into the top of previous rounds dc
- Do not include the Chain start sts in the stitch count.
Yarn = Aran weight / worsted weight yarn
Hook = 5.50mm (If you crochet tightly then consider going up a size) This hat is very loosely crocheted.
Special note:
The hat is worked in rounds and will look strange and like a large scrunchie. As you work, the hat will become like a large floppy pancake, you need to carry on working until you start to decrease, which will pull in the sides of the hat. And the Hat shape starts to appear.
I have added photos to support Rnds 2,3,4 at the end.
Rnd 1: Work 21dc into Magic circle. Slip stitch to join. Pull tightly.
Rnd 2:Ch2 *FPDC around next, dc in to top of next stitch *repeat * * around, Slip stitch into start ch to join(42)
