MOONCHILD COLLECTION
Moonchild is a light summer knit & crochet set. The versatile, airy, lace cowboy hat is a lovely and practical addition to the rest of the collection. Halter-top, lacy skirt, and a chic bracelet create a perfect beach and leisure assembly.

After creating the Moonchild top and skirts, I knew the collection needed just one more accessory: a hat. The Moonchild Crochet Summer Hat is designed in the same stitch pattern as the rest of the collection, bringing the pieces together in a complete look. Crocheted in the rounds, it’s light, breathable, and perfect for sunny days.

HAT
What makes this hat special is its versatility. The wide brim gives you shade and elegance, while the two buttons on each side allow you to fold the brim up — instantly turning it into a cowboy hat. Add the leather cords and beads, and you have a hat that can go from casual beach walks to boho-inspired evenings.

PATTERN
The pattern is beginner-friendly and written in clear steps, with tips and special stitch tutorials to guide you. Because it’s worked in rounds, you’ll quickly find yourself in a pleasant rhythm. And when you’re done, you’ll have not just a practical summer hat, but a statement piece that matches beautifully with the Moonchild skirts and top.

This design comes with my newly released premium instructions — a carefully prepared pattern booklet that goes beyond the basics. Inside, you’ll find clear step-by-step directions, detailed diagrams, and thoughtfully styled pages that make the process both easy to follow and a pleasure to read. To give you a glimpse of the quality, on my website I’ve included a preview in a 3D format — flip through the sample pages and see exactly what awaits you in the full version.
