Granny Christmas Hats
Here is a fun and easy Granny stitch hat that Father Christmas himself would wear with pride. Not content with designing a hat for a real sized person, accompanying this jolly headwear I have also included a pattern for mini versions. They look superb as Christmas decorations, either as a garland or as individual tree decorations.
Materials:
Stylecraft Life Super Chunky (100g/80m per ball) in Cream (1) & Cardinal (2) - see notes about quantities
8mm hook
Large eye darning needle
Pompom maker for approx 8-9cm diameter pompom
Small pompom maker (I used a fork!). Or you can buy mini pompoms ready made.
Lengths of cream dk acrylic yarn for tying pompoms
Thread/ribbon for hanging
Tension: Whilst tension isn’t critical for this project, it will affect the amount of yarn used.
Abbreviations:
Ch: chain
BPtr: back post treble (US BPdc)
FPtr: front post treble (US FPdc)
Rep: repeat
2htrtog: 2 half trebles together (US 2hdctog)
Htr: half treble (US hdc)
St: stitch
Ss: slip stitch
Tr: Treble crochet (US double)
Finished size (large hat): When laid flat: Length (excl pompom) approx 14 inches/36cm. Diameter approx 9.5inches/24cm
Finished size (mini hat): When laid flat: Length (excl pompom) approx 4.5 inches/11cm. Diameter approx 3.25inches/8.5cm
Notes:
- The pattern is written in UK terms with the US terms included in the notes.
- Pattern worked bottom up
Skill level: easy - Option to finish the large hat a few rounds early (that way, just one ball of red can be used).
- Two ways of shaping the mini hat.
