Pattern Notes
•
Pattern is written in US terminology.
• All stitches in blue are stitches you actually make.
• The hat is crocheted in separate pieces and assembled at the end.
• The base of the hat is worked from the top down in continuous rounds.
• There is not always a ch1 at the end of a row so please read pattern carefully.
• Ch1 at the beginning of a row/round does not count as a stitch.
• The number in ( ) is the number of stitches in that row/round.
• Place a stitch marker in the 1st stitch of each round or row to indicate the beginning.
Move the stitch marker up each round.
• When working repeats within , you will work the inc into the next stitch and the
subsequent single crochet stitches into as many stitches as indicated,
e.g. inc, sc5 – increase into the next stitch, single crochet into the next 5 stitches.
