PopCorn stitch Slouch Hat

So I like to crochet, I like to design, but have no clue what sort of yarn, what gauge, what other technical lingo is used.

I started this project as a hat for myself. I got a new haircut, short on one side and long on the other side, I just absolutely love it! But all my hats from last winter don't have the Oh La La factor now with my new haircut, so I needed something else! I was always curious in how to work a stitch like the popcorn stitch or the bobble stitch in a hat. It took me awhile to figure out how to get a nice circular shape instead of a haxagon or a what-a-gon. I think I had to start over at least 12 times, before I had a nice shape.

There is probably an easier way, but hey.. I'm stubborn.. I wanted to figure it out myself! And learned a lot!

This pattern is for 4 sizes: Baby, Toddler, Child 4-10yrs old, Adult

Yarn: Sport, DK or Worsted yarn in any 2 colors I used Drops Alaska and similar yarns
