Excerpt From Headgear

Let’s start off with a basic double crochet hat. The simpler the stitching on any garment, the easier to grasp the construction, this is a great first hat to practice the technique used on each hat throughout the book. Essential features a basic double crochet construction with a crab stitch border.

PATTERN INFORMATION
