I created a Hat! I took inspiration from other designs and made it my own.
With the political climate as it is, we need to own the future. My friend Amy and I walked in the first Pink Hat March on January 21, 2017. I busted out those pink hats like it was nobody’s business.
We know what’s going to happen in November and we need a hat to celebrate; I bring you ‘Cats, Chucks, Pearls’

Notes for Hat
Beginning chain 1/2 at beginning of the round does not count towards stitch count, It’s used to make height for HDC and DC.
This is a waffle hat crochet in the round. You start at the top and work towards the bottom.
Hat is size to fit adult medium head. You can modify the pattern larger or smaller by chaining multiple of 3s. You can use the Foundation HDC instead of chaining 72.
Each row is joined with a slip stitch around the beginning HDC/DC. It will ‘pop out’ that stitch, you will also use that ‘popped’ stitch for your first FPDC of the row.
