      Stitch Pattern Used<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      The hat uses a simple textured stitch<\/strong> made by alternating single crochet and double crochet stitches. This pattern creates a lovely, slightly raised texture that looks much more advanced than it really is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Pattern repeat:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • 1 single crochet<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • 1 double crochet
        Repeat across the round<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        This stitch pattern is easy to remember and works up quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        Step 1: Start with a Magic Ring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Make a magic ring.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Crochet 10 double crochets<\/strong> into the ring.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Pull the ring tight and join with a slip stitch.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          This forms the top of the hat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n\n\n\n
          \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

          Step 2: Increase for the Crown<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          To shape the hat, you\u2019ll increase stitches in each round:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Round 2:<\/strong> 2 double crochets in each stitch (20 stitches)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Round 3:<\/strong> 1 double crochet, 2 double crochets in next stitch (repeat around)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • Round 4:<\/strong> 2 double crochets, 2 double crochets in next stitch (repeat around)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Keep increasing until the circle is wide enough to cover the top of your head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n\n\n\n

            Step 3: Begin the Stitch Pattern<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

            Once the crown is the right size, stop increasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n
            • Crochet 1 single crochet, 1 double crochet<\/strong> around.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Continue this stitch pattern in every round.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Do not increase anymore\u2014this will form the sides of the hat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              The texture will become more visible as the hat grows longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

              \n\n\n\n

              Step 4: Adjust the Length<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

              Keep crocheting until the hat reaches your desired length:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n
              • Short length for a fitted hat<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Longer length for a slouchy hat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                Try it on as you go to check the fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                \n\n\n\n

                Step 5: Finish the Hat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. End with a slip stitch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. Cut the yarn, leaving a small tail.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                3. Use a yarn needle to weave in all loose ends.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                  Your crochet hat is now complete!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
