ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! I really love making this hat. :)
ReplyDeletei love the hat thank you for the pattern will try to make one for my mum
ReplyDeletebless you dear
What letter crochet hook is a 5.00 mm. My set only has letters. Im guessing an I or H. Thanks in advance. Melissa Powell
ReplyDeleteMelissa, a 5.00 mm hook is an H.:)
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to make this super cute hat but it is looking very pointy at the tip and wavy around the edges. Is that how it is supposed to look at the beginning (at row 6 and 7). Would love to be able to make this. What am I doing wrong?
ReplyDeleteI have made some corrections to the hat so it will make better sense. Make sure you are using a stitch marker and skip a stitch before the next st. Email me at thistlesandtulipscrochet@mail.com if you have any more problems.
ReplyDeleteI'm on row 11 and my hat is very wavy. Am I skipping too many?
DeleteThanks!
hi I love the hat pattern thanks for the pattern I am trying to make the hat now I am stuck on row 11 how did you get 86 stitches from row 10 HELP
ReplyDeleteHowdy, really love your website. Awesome patterns. Thank you. :)
ReplyDeleteNice hat, and great picture! When I wanted to comment I scrolled ALL the way down to your goober Ariana; what a sweet little punkin!! She looks like she's up to something in that picture. And I have a dog at home with the same eyes as your Jinx :)
ReplyDeletethank you so much for this pattern! i made a hat almost identical to this many years ago and now someone wants me to make the same one and i couldn't for the life of me find the pattern i had used. this one is so very similar that they won't know the difference ;-) even down to the reverse single crochet edge! awesome! thanks! :-)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteSo I am a guy who crochets and I like the style of a "slouch hat" (Civil War Re-enactor and all). But I found a few pointers for any guys or those who want a more "manly" version. First: Do the DC 2 skip then 3 for an extra round or two (into row 12 or 13) as the hat (at least mine) came out a little tight. Also, to only have a "bill" in the front (Some think it's a bit more "manly" than a bill all the way around. Simple do as instructed above except in the sides and what you want to be the back, skip a stitch every once in a while. (I did this every 5 stitches or so.) Hope this helps anyone interested.
ReplyDeleteGreat pattern, it is what I have been looking for.
ReplyDeleteRow 6 I keep ending up with 32....any ideas?
ReplyDeleteAfter three attempts to come up with a sun hat, it's finally here. I'm calling it the Main Street Hat because it reminds me of a jazz hat. It's very easy ... asunhat.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteThis pattern just wasn't working. There was a point in the center and it was very wavy by the time I got to grow 12. I finally gave up.
ReplyDeleteTo make the rim larger as a sun hat where do I make changes and what do I do which round
