A summer sun hat, with a wide brim to protect your child from the sun. Made with a recycled wool and cotton blend with a rustic look. My Ronja used her hat for 2 years. The bigger size fits her (3 y/o) and her sister (6 y/o) The front post double crochet stitches give the summer hat a vintage look. It also creates a stretchy fabric.

For the hat part you crochet every row and then join in the round. The first ch3 counts as a dc.
For the brim part you do not join in the round. You will crochet a spiral. You can place a marker in the first stitch of the round and move it with every new round. The parts in the pattern between the you have to repeat. In the abbreviations list you’ll also find a small tutorial on the fpdc stitch.
