This is one of My creations and I hope to bring Tapestry Crochet Back to everyday life. The pictures you see on the left from top to bottom and in pairs are Hat Version 3, Hat Version 2 and Hat Version 1 of the Hat Pattern. Three Hat Patterns for one Price. This hat is mainly for a man, but with other color choices it can be made for a woman. Still as it is, I believe a woman can certainly wear it with pride as much as a man.

You will need two skeins of either yarns, one of each color. Two of the 50/50 Jacob/Alpaca DK or Fingering; or Two of the 70/30 Blue Face Leicester/Pygora Dk or Fingering Blend are great choices.

I have added Wollemeise Twin – fingering weight Fig. 3 Color A =112.2 yards, Color B = 33 grams 132.6 yards, 39 grams to make a vibrant looking hat.

This pattern has video links that will help you with some of the stitches. It is not for the timid, challenge yourself and you will be able to enjoy what I come to think as art work. I consider myself an artisan of sorts and here I share some of my latest work. Thank you!
