Winter Watermelon Hat by Geraldine Lemay

Winter Watermelon Hat

Discontinued. This digital pattern is no longer available online.

I created this hat and scarf set a year ago and wrote up the scarf pattern, but not the hat. Now, FINALLY, here is the hat pattern!

This is the 3rd time I made it. The first pink one is my sister’s, but it wasn’t quite long enough and felt just a mite loose. The second one is mine, but it felt a little imbalanced and was too tight in the crown. What these hat qualities may say about their respective owners is purely conjecture.

SO, after many requests for the hat pattern, here it is!!

There is a YouTube video that corresponds with the scarf (teaches front/back loop and beaded crochet) here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCldk_a_wlQ

and one that corresponds with the hat (teaches the Magic circle, working in the round, working front/back loop in the round, increasing/decreasing in the round) here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ru2urVmCWH0

Pattern found on my blog here.
