This is a very simple hat crochet pattern that I have used over and over again. It has been adapted from the pattern called Crochet Head Hugger by Christine Marie Way Tyler & John Wesley Tyler for use with our bulky Snuggle Yarn by The Alpaca Yarn Company.
For this hat, I used the colorway, A Group of Greens.
Here’s the pattern:
HOOK
US Size J
MATERIALS
1 Skein of Snuggle Hand-Dyed
1 Skein of Snuggle Solids
Body of hat requires about 90 yards, brim takes about 15 yards.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
This hat measures 21″ around at the widest point and is 8″ from the top to the bottom of the turned up brim.
