Sun Hat for the Ladies!

by Corina on May 9, 2012

Sun hat for the ladies!! Need a sun hat in a different size? I also have free patterns for 6-9 month, 12-18 month, toddler, and child sizes!

Supplies:
5mm hook
4 ply cotton ( I used Peaches and Creme cotton yarn)
Abbreviations:
CH – Chain
HDC - Half Double Crochet
DC – Double crochet
SC – single Crochet

(CH-3 does not count as DC)

Instructions:
Round 1: Magic Ring, CH 3, DC 10, pull ring tight, join to top CH of CH 3
Round 2: CH 3, 2 DC each DC around. Join to top CH of CH 3. (20 DC)
Round 3: CH 3. *2 DC in next DC, DC in next DC, repeat from * around. Join to top CH of CH 3. (30 DC)
Round 4: CH 3. *2 DC in next DC, DC in next 2 DC, repeat from * around. Join to top CH of CH 3. (40 DC)
Round 5: CH 3. *2 DC in next DC, DC in next 3 DC, repeat from * around. Join to top CH of CH 3. (50 DC)
Round 6: CH 3. *2 DC in next DC, DC in next 4 DC, repeat from * around. Join to top CH of CH 3. (60 DC)
Round 7: CH 3. *2 DC in next DC, DC in next 9 DC, repeat from * around. Join to top CH of CH 3. (66 DC)
Round 8-14: CH 3, DC in each DC around. Join to top CH of CH 3. Do not finish off.

Round 15: ~Working in front loop only for this round only~CH 2 *2 HDC in next loop, HDC in next 2 loops, repeat from * around, connect to top of CH 2
Round 16: CH 2 *2 HDC in next HDC, HDC in next 2 HDC, repeat from * around, connect to top of CH 2
Round 17-18: CH 2 *2 HDC in next HDC, HDC in next 4 HDC, repeat from * around, connect to top of CH 2
Round 19: CH 2 *2 HDC in next stitch, 1 HDC in next 5 stitches, repeat from * around. connect to top of CH 2
Round 20: CH 1, SC around, connect to CH 1

I used 7 strands of yarn and weaved them in and out every 2 stitches
in row 14. Make sure you leave a little slack so the hat can
stretch over the head.

Cute pattern! I’ve started one for my niece but upon remembering she just pulls hats off, I may have to adjust to the adult size and keep it… hmm. There’s a mistake on this size though, round 3 is meant to say “CH 3″ at the start, not “DC 3″.

I have a facebook page called Home made hats. I have been trying to design some head wraps for the ladies and so far have designed one. You can view pics of it on my page. Thank you for your quick response to any questions about your patterns. They are all very charming; I haven’t seen one yet that I don’t like. Keep up the good work ~ Happy Hooking ~ Cheryl Frye, Home made hats

Love this pattern…have a tea party bridal shower to go to and need a hat! This will be perfect with a few embellishments. How much cotton yarn did you use??

I know with the child and adult sizes I used just over one ball. So I would always get two balls just to be safe.
