Spinnaker was designed to be a boy-appropriate (but not boy-specific) baby hat. Using just one stitch (hdc), Spinnaker combines simplicity with amazing texture.

Pattern includes chart, written instructions, and photo tips. A second post will give instructions for an alternative band, and helpful hints for up-sizing to child or adult sizes.

DesigningVashti’s Lotus yarn is perfect for this little hat (see yellow sample), but you can make it with any yarn and the appropriate size hook. Blue sample was made with sock-weight yarn.

My Spinnaker hats will be donated to Taci’s Hats for Brazil 2015.

Thanks for viewing, and happy crocheting! :)
