Materials:
· I hook (hat body) and H hook (bottom rim)
· 4 colors of Worsted, Med yarn. (I used Vanna’s choice Sapphire, Chocolate, Mustard, and Olive)
Special stitch:
This diagram shows where the horizontal bar (or diagonal looking stitch) is located (on WRONG SIDE of rnd):
ALL SIZES:Ch 4, ss to 1st ch to form loop (or do a magic circle), ch 2.
Rnd 1: With color #1: Work 8 hdc into loop. Join with ss to back horizontal bar (or diagonal loop -- that's what it looks like to me!) behind beginning (you will do this through the whole pattern! See special stitch picture above) ch 1. Change to color #2. (8) ch 1.
Rnd 2: Work 2 hdc in same st as joining (always do this at the beginning of each row). 2 hdc in each back diagonal st around. This will make the stripes stand out, so remember to always do it throughout pattern. Join & change to color #3. (16) ch 1.
Rnd 3: 2 hdc in same st as joining, 1 hdc in next st. * 2 hdc in next st, 1 hdc in next st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 4. (24) ch 1.
Rnd 4: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 2 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 2 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 1. (32) ch 1.
Rnd 5: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 3 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 3 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 2. (40) ch 1.
Rnd 6: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 4 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 4 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 3. (48) ch 1.
I used 3 colors on this one and it just didn't have the same look as the 4. For beard pattern see links below! |
Rnd 7-18: hdc in each st around changing colors after each row. (48) (Note: always feel free to make the hat shorter or longer by taking out rows or adding them)
Rnd 19: With H hook: sc in back diagonal loops around.
Rnd 20-22: sc around in each sc stitch.
Fasten and finish off.
Women's Size: (Medium)
Rnd 7: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 5 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 5 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 4. (56) ch 1.
Rnd 8-20: hdc in each st around changing colors after each row. (56) (Note: always feel free to make the hat shorter or longer by taking out rows or adding them)
Rnd 21: With H hook: sc in back diagonal loops around.
Rnd 22-24: sc around in each sc stitch.
Fasten and finish off.
Men's Size: (Large)
For beard pattern see links below! |
Rnd 7: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 5 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 5 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 4. (56) ch 1.

for the large, you have 9-22 being 56st, but row 8 is 64st, so shouldn't they be 64 as well? Just wondering if I was missing something or if it was just typed in wrong.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
You are totally right!! Thanks for catching my typo!!
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern but I have a question. For the women's size, do you still do 2 hdc in the same st as joining for rounds 8-20?
