For this pattern I use Red Heart
Shimmer yarn, and a size G/6 hook.
Start by making a CH 3, join in the
first CH.
RND. 1. CH 2 (counts as first HDC),
work 7 HDC in the circle just made. Join in the CH made at beginning of round. 8
ST.
RND. 2: CH 2. Now FPHDC the next
stitch, HDC the next, cont. to the end of round. Join. 16.St.
RND. 3: CH 2. HDC in the same stitch
to increase. FPHDC, then HDC in the same stitch to increase, then HDC the next
stitch, cont. to end of RND. Join. 24. St.
You are making the FPHDC to make a
rib appear that will run from the top of the hat down to the ears. Each round
you will increase the number of stitches by 8, one after each FPHDC.
RND. 4: CH 2. HDC in the same stitch to increase. FPHDC,
then HDC in the same stitch to increase, then HDC the next 2 stitches, cont. to
end of RND. Join.
RND. 5: CH 2. . HDC in the same
stitch to increase. FPHDC, then HDC in the same stitch to increase, then HDC
the next 3 stitches, cont. to end of RND. Join.
Continue this pattern of increasing
one after each FPHDC until you’ve reached the size you are working on.
2-3 Yrs. 9 rounds of increase.
3-5 Yrs. 10 Rounds of increase.
5-7 Yrs. 11 rounds of increase.
8-10 Yrs. 12 rounds of increase.
Now you will work five rows of the
same pattern, but you will no longer increase.
CH 2. FPHDC. HDC in each stitch of
the previous row until you get to the next Front post, FPHDC. Continue to end
of round. Join.
Once you‘ve made the
five rounds, work one decrease row, DEC. 8 for sizes 2-5 and 10 for sizes7-10.
Evenly spaced throughout the round.
Change color.
With color B
work in a slip stitch in each HDC around. Join.
Now make a
single crochet in that same HDC as before, creating a decorative row of SL.ST.
(seen in the picture as where the white starts after the black) Join.
Change color.
With color C, SC
in each previous SC around. Join.
Make six rows,
(8 For the larger sizes)
Change color and

3. Join.
Make 5 SC in the
circle you made. Join.
CH 3, SC in the
next stitch, CH 3, SC in next, REP until you have 5 loops of CH 3 in this
round.

SC, 3 HDC, 1 SC in each loop, makes 5, all around. Join.

a slip stitch in the back of previos rows. Make 5 loops. Join.
With color B. 1
HDC, 3 DC, 1 HDC in each of the 5 loops. Join.

With color A. 1
HDC, 1 DC, 3 TR.C, 1 DC, 1 HDC in each of the 5 loops.
Leave a long
tail and stitch the flower to your hat. I put the flower on the „seam“ where
I‘ve joined the rounds, that way if it is uneven the flower will cover that.
I hope you had
fun making this flower hat!
