I’ve made this pattern multiple times and every time I make a mistake (or 2) at some point in the pattern. I don’t think the pattern is as clear as it could be, but I really love this hat!

I held 2 strands together of this yarn.

To help fit my giant head, I did 3 rounds of the Rnd 12-13 round.

For round 16, I accidentally did FP and BP triple crochets instead of FP and BP double crochets (by accident). This is the most confusing row of the pattern.

I added a row of FP and BP dc - doing each FPdc and BPdc into the corresponding FPtc and BPtc in the previous round.
