The “Eden” cloche uses a light and airy stitch pattern that makes this a great spring hat! It’s a perfect fashion accessory for walks in the park, digging in the garden, or picking a spring bouquet. Because of its lacy design, it can be modified up or down in size using different hooks and weights of yarn.

Difficulty:
Easy

Materials Needed:
4mm (G) hook for toddler
5mm (H) hook for child size
6mm (J) hook for adult size
150-200 yards of #4 worsted weight Caron Simply Soft in Pistachio, Soft Green, or Bone. You can also try # 3 light weight Bernat Baby Softee in Soft Red but you may need to go up a hook size or two to meet gauge
Scissors
Yarn needle or ribbon needle
1 yard 5/8” ribbon
Fray check or clear nail polish for ribbon ends
(Optional) Hair clip accessory

Additional Terms:
3dc cluster: YO, insert hook into stitch, pull up a loop, YO, draw through 2 loops (1st stitch of cluster made), YO, insert hook into same st, pull up a loop, YO draw through 2 loops (2nd st of cluster made), YO, insert hook into same st, pull up a loop, YO draw through 2 loops (3rd st of cluster made), YO, draw through all loops on hook.
Cross Stitch (crossed double crochet): sk st, dc in next st, cross over st just made and dc in skipped st.
Working in the 3rd loop of an hdc: Look at the top of the stitch, and locate the sideways “V”, bend the stitch to look at the back, and you should see another “V” made by the “yarn over”. You’ll be working into the back loop of that “V”, this is the yarn over and is called the 3rd loop.

Additional Notes:
-Regarding the child size: The smaller the child the more slouchy this hat may be on them. Just pull the ribbon tighter, scoot the hat back on your child’s head, and let the top part of the hat slouch down. There are so many cute ways to wear it!
