Oh that is very cute! Thanks for sharing the pattern. I am sure my daughter will just love this hat. :D
Okay, I have to make one of these. This is sooooooo cute. Great job. Thanks for the pattern!
I love the hat although with my crochet skills I don't think I will be making one. ;)
I love the hat. I don't have really advance crochet skills but I can crochet. I'd love to make one for a friends daughter and frankly I'd love to make one for myself!! How much alteration would I need to do to make the hat fit an adult??
starfire - the hat is a very simple project... you shouldn't have any trouble with it (I still consider myself a beginner at crochet)
I haven't worked one for an adult yet, but I plan to
for an adult, I would work a couple more round of shaping... between round 5 and 6 on this pattern
5a. increase in every 5th stitch (72)
5b. increase in every 6th stitch (84)
then measure the circumference of your head, and the diameter of your circle... if necessary, work another row of increases (every 7th stitch - 96)
rounds 6-11 on the pattern have no shaping... add an extra 2 or 3 rounds to this for an adult hat... try it on! decide when you think it is long enough, and you are ready to start the brim
work round 12-15 for the brim shaping... try it on again... if it needs a few more rounds you can either continue increasing (which will make it more ruffled) or just dc into each stitch
enjoy :)
again you make me want to learn to crochet....
:-)
Thanks so much for the advise on the adult sized "adorable ruffles" . I made one for a friend who is undergoing chemo and one for myself
This is exactly what I'm looking for to make for a nearly 2 year old. I found this on Ravelry and will get going on it soon.
Thanks!
Laurie
This hat is soooooo precious! Thank you so much for sharing it. I have crocheted for years, and plan to make it and increase it a little for my 4year old granddaughter. I know she will love it! But in all my crocheting, I have never heard of a disappearing circle. Can you help me here?
This hat is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
michelle - give it a go, you might surprise yourself
starfire - you're welcome
laurie - enjoy!

onfire - happy to share
Hi, thanks for you article. Nice to see your blog. Keep Posting
Hi,
First of all thank you for sharing this adorable hat, I can't wait to make this for my daughter.
I am wondering if you would happen to know about how much yarn it takes to make this hat? I will be using cotton yarn.
Thank you so much.
