Candy Stripes Hat

This slouchy hat is worked sideways using back loop crochet. The resulting ribbed fabric is enhanced by using two colors, giving the hat a striped look that is addictive to work just like eating candy. The crown is shaped by short rows – these are easier to do than you might think! First and last row are joined by crocheting them together, making the join invisible (and there is no sewing by hand). And as the resulting fabric is very stretchy, this hat can also be worn as a beanie with folded brim.

The pattern contains one file with the English and German version. Please respect our environment and print only those pages you need.
