Wow...your hat design is beautiful. Love it.
Love this hat! Thank you for posting this for us to share...I have one questions though on row 9- it's 6 single puffs and 2 double and then it goes to 7 singles in the same row? or should it be row 10?
Hi loremor and thank you, I'm glad you like my pattern!
I'm not sure i've understood your question..
I'll try to reply anyway.
On Round 9 you should make: 1 puff stitch in same st as joining, 1 puff stitch in each of the next 6 st, and 2 puff stitches in next st.
Then you should continue the round making *1 puff stitches in each of the next 7 st and 2 puff stitches in next st*.
I hope it's more clear now, but if you have any other question just contact me!
Thanks again,
Marta
I was confused but I got it. I went back and counted my puffs in row 9 and they are exactly as you explained. I can't wait to finish and wear the hat!
Great pattern -- can't wait to try.
I love this hat! And I made my own version of it...it's my first crocheted hat!
I had some variegated rainbow baby wool yarn so I decided to try your hat pattern with my wool and whatever hook I had in my hand. Because I didn't bother with gauge and whatnot I had to modify the pattern a little. I also made it far too small the first time and I had to undo a few rows but now it fits perfectly! And because I had a pretty busy coloured yarn I didn't do the bow. Here's a pic...

Thanks so much for sharing this pattern!!
That's beautiful and looks great on you!
I love the rainbow yarn too.
Good job!!;)
I've been working on this hat using a 100% hemp yarn. However, I've just finished step 13 and it looks like a floppy pancake! Would this occur because I used too big of a hook?? HELP!
