This warm and stylish hat is worked in one piece - initially on the round, and then in rows to create the brim and ear flaps. Don’t be put off by the color work pattern - I have made it super-easy for you to follow because there are no charts to read, and I have included a link to a video tutorial which shows how to crochet with two colors in the round. You can totally do this!

The hat is a ‘one size fits most’ because the brim can easily be shortened, or folded back further, to fit smaller heads.

You will only need two 2 oz skeins (50 g balls) of light worsted (double knitting/8 ply) yarn in the main color, plus an oddment of yarn - approximately 1 oz (25 g) - in a contrast color to work the heart pattern and pompoms.

My patterns are written in plain English using standard US terms, which makes them easy to follow whether you are a newbie crocheter or you have many years of experience, but you can always message me if you have any queries about my patterns.
