This is an UNTESTED pattern.

Included explanations to obtain sizes S and L.

It’s my first pattern as a designer, and it speaks volumes about me. I made it a round at the time, without knowing what kind of hat I would get in the very end. Let me say it was kinda like a trip within myself.

I started with the idea of a square top, or a four cornered shape, punctuated with horizontal textured stripes to give the hat structure and thickness. While I crocheted and measured the increasing part I noticed it was sort of a clover shape and not a square, but I was happy with that.

The name suggests a promenade in a space full of cherished memeories and blessings to me. I hope it’s the same for you.

It can be whipped up in an evening, and is a very relaxing pattern (no need to count every round, it’s very easy to follow through the instructions).
