Play with colour and texture with this easy to make Stepping Stone Hat Crochet Pattern worked in multiple colours!

Not too long ago I fell in love with a crochet stitch that I designed and called the Stepping Stone Stitch. I quickly designed a cowl or neck warmer to go with it and I am now pleased to provide the crochet pattern for the matching hat!

The Stepping Stone Hat crochet pattern is worked simply from the bottom to the top. It is quite quick to work up being crocheted mostly with double crochet stitches. The front post double crochet stitches at the top of the hat add an extra layer of warmth and style. You may wear the hat with a pompom or without.

This crochet pattern is available in English only and written using American crochet terms.
