Meet ‘POST 2 B — the project started as a cowl, but the crochet mojo had other plansand developed an identity of its own.

The result is this stripe-y, textured, front-post beauty of a hat! Bold two-color design with a satisfying stitch repeat to fit the big-brained and the big-haired alike.

This intermediate crochet hat pattern uses front post double crochet worked in alternating colors to create a raised, ribbed stripe texture that’s absolutely addictive once you find your rhythm. The crown-down construction means you’ll see the whole thing come together in real time — from the magic ring out to the brim border.
