For a better understanding of my crochet patterns please see My special crochet abbreviations.
I used:
4 ply Worsted Weight Yarns. (I Usually use Patons Canadiana Medium...)
4.5 MM hook or Hook Needed to obtain gauge.
Round Markers.
Gauge:
Approximately 5 rows = 2 inches.
Approximately 5 Hdc = 2 inches.
Advice:
Work the hat 'base' in a continuous round.
Mark new rounds.
Save time, measure your gauge.
Read Before Proceed.
Measure the head you are making your hat for.
Size may vary by each individuals crochet tension or yarn types!
Be creative and add your own special touch!
Hide all knots and ends inside hat!
