The Easy Magic Slouch



Introduction: I have named this free crochet hat pattern, The Easy Magic Slouch as it's decorative and textured look is so easy to achieve. The decorative bumps are made by placing a trpl crochet in between 2 sc's, the larger st placed between the 2 smaller st's force the larger st to poke out, so much easier and quicker than making a bobble st or a popcorn st and less yarn too! now that's magic. The texture of the st's in the body of the hat is achieved by placing a hdc and dc next to each other and repeated for the round, the texture of the hat edge is a row of sc's followed by a row of bpsc which completes the easy magic slouch, I hope you have as much fun making this hat pattern as I did whilst writing it. Find me on Face Book.

Baby Kisses-Crochet Baby Hat-Free Pattern




Introduction: This is a sweet little pattern for a boy or girl, and depending on which way you look at it, you can see an X shape or a Diamond shape, I can see the X shape and have therefore called the hat pattern, baby kisses xxx. The shape is formed by skipping a stitch, making 2 st's then coming back to work in the skipped st, the other half of the stitch is made similar, but you skip 2 st's, make a st, then come in from behind the st just made and make the 2 skipped st's, that way the elongated stitch stands out as a 3d effect and makes the X or the diamond.

The Dragon Scale – Adult Hat – Free Crochet Pattern




 The Dragon Scale
the dragon scale
Introduction: Whilst I was making this design and up to a second repeat of crocheting the pattern, I took some time to observe it closely and was not exactly pleased with the way it was looking. I turned it sideways and upside down and concluded that the pattern I was trying to make was not working out, it was quite by chance that I turned the hat inside out and discovered a whole new look, the wrong side looked great! So it was straight back to the pattern instructions to make it work. What is also great about this pattern are the instructions, they are so minimal. This design also reminds me of the crocodile stitch, but without the awkwardness of that particular stitch. Enjoy!
This is also available in newborn to 3 months, click here for the free pattern
 You can find the free pattern for the matching infinity cowl here
crochet dragon scale hat lilac
Hook size: 3.5mm, 4.0mm, 4.5 mm to 5.0mm, US G/6
Please note, by using a smaller or larger hook, you can make a smaller or larger beanie

To fit: Adult
Yarn: 8 ply approx 100 gm’s US DK/Medium.
US crochet terms used
Skill level: beginner +
Tension: medium
Time: approx 2 hours
Stitches used:
Sl st=slip stitch
Ch=chain
Sc = single crochet
Hdc= half double crochet
Dc =double crochet
Fpdc=front post double crochet
Special stitch: Shell st, (1 dc, 1 ch) x 6 times and 1 more dc in the same stitch
I’m using a 3.5 mm hook, my head circumference measures approx, 17 inches around after row 6. I will increase for 1 more round (row 7), to achieve my adult size hat, between, 18.5 and 21.5 inches circumference. In saying this, my stitch pattern is an 8 stitch repeat, I have either 4 st’s too many or 4 too less with the 84 dc count. I will work 1 more round and add 4 extra st’s spaced randomly apart.

Please note! The beginning ch 2 of every rnd is not counted as a st.
BEGIN: Making the crown
Chain 4, sl st to first ch to form a ring. Or use a magic ring.
Row 1, ch 2, work 12 dc into ring, to join, sl st into the 1st dc of this round, (you will join this way on every round)
(Increase in every st)
Row 2, ch 2, work 2 dc into each dc to end, sl st to join (24 dc)
(Increase in every 2nd st)
Row 3, ch 2, work 1 dc in same place as join, work 2 dc into the next dc, *work 1 dc in next dc, work 2 dc into the next dc*, repeat from *to* to end, sl st to join (36 dc)
(Increase in every 3rd st)
Row 4, ch 1, work 1 dc in same place as join, work 1 dc into the next dc, work 2 dc into the next dc, * work 1 dc into each of the next 2 dc, work 2 dc into the next dc*,  repeat from *to* to end, sl st to join (48 dc)
(Increase in every 4th st)
Row 5, ch 1, work 1 dc in same place as join, work 1 dc into each of the next 2 dc, work 2 dc into the next dc, * work 1 dc into each of the next 3 dc, work 2 dc into the next dc*,  repeat from *to* to end, sl st to join (60 dc)

You have the option to increase to 84 st’s (increase in every 6th st) to 96 st’s, (increase in every 7th st), for a lovely beret/slouch, but these extra st’s will need to be decreased, the best place to do this is within the very first round of the hat edging
For a 3.5mm hook or beret/slouch only! (Increase in every 6th st)
Row 7, ch 1, work 1 dc in same place as join, work 1 dc into each of the next 4 dc, work 2 dc into the next dc, * work 1 dc into each of the next 5 dc, work 2 dc into the next dc*,  repeat from *to* to end, sl st to join (84 dc)
