A hat for him..

December 17, 2012 By: DearestDebi9 Comments


Your favorite brands under one roof: Patons, Bernat, Caron, Lily Sugar‘n Cream, Phentex, and now Red Heart! New and innovative yarn is added all the time.

A hat for him..

My son had this hat when he was younger and I’ve considered a few times to try to re-create it in crochet. I had not started on this hat because I was waiting to find the right stitching to use.

Today (as I’m writing this it’s December 7th) I came across this tutorial by the crochet geek for this stitch called the Boucan Pattern Stitch. It looks perfect to use for the hat!

I am wearing the hat because the person getting this hat doesn’t know yet, so here is me wearing the hat.

I think I’d like one for myself now!

    Hi, love this hat, and made it this week. I wanted it all one color though, so that’s what I did. I took a picture, but not sure how to post it here. I have a question. I haven’t crocheted in years, but when I got to Rnd 12-17, I think it should say ‘rep rnd 11’, and not ‘rep rnd 10’. Am I correct? That’s what I ended up doing. Thanx so much for sharing this pattern…just what I was looking for!
