Our hat pattern today is full of thick, beautiful texture! It showcases a stitch pattern called the Trend Stitch. It uses a beautiful cluster stitch (that is defined under the “Stitches and Abbreviations” below) and some half double crochet stitches worked in the third loop.

It is worked from the bottom up and we will be working the adult size in the tutorial today. With reference to the stitch multiples should you wish to change the size of your hat.
