Köp produktHere's how to do it
1. Start
Start by making a simple drawknot on the crochet hook. One way you can do this is to wrap the yarn around your index and middle finger and then pull the yarn up so that the knot locks as you tighten.
Leave approx. 15cm tail.
2. The chain
We will now make a chain. Adjust the loop you just made around your crochet hook so it is just tight enough around the crochet hook. Now we will start crocheting the chain, use the crochet hook and pick up the yarn with the end that comes from the yarn roll (you temporarily have 2 loops on the crochet hook) and pull through so that a loop is formed (first loop). Do this until you have 3 loops on the hook. Now you will crochet together your first and your last stitch, this will be the top of the hat.
3. The top of the hat
Now crochet around until you have the diameter you want - follow the increases below to get a good increase. Keep track of your rounds by inserting a safety pin at the beginning of each round.
Round 1: Increase single crochet in each stitch = crochet two single crochet in each stitch
Round 2: Increase single crochet in each stitch = crochet two single crochet in each stitch
Round 3: 1 single crochet, 1 increase = every other stitch single, every other stitch double
Round 4 : 2 single crochet, 1 increase = make a single crochet in 2 stitches, in the third you make two.
Round 5 : 3 single crochet, 1 increase
Round 6 : 4 single crochet, 1 increase
Round 7 : 5 single crochet, 1 increase
Round 8 : 6 single crochet, 1 increase
Round 9 : 7 single crochet, 1 increase
After the 9th round - check the measurements of your head. If you need a larger hat, make another row or two before continuing with round 11.
Extra round 1: 8 single crochet, 1 increase
Extra round 2: 9 single crochet, 1 increase
Extra round 3 : 10 single crochet, 1 increase
4. The side of the hat
Rows 11 to 19 : Single crochet only - no increase. This will create the side of the hat.
5. Brim
Round 20: Look at the stitches, they consist of two rows. The one closest to you is the front mesh hoop and the one away from you is the rear mesh hoop. Crochet this round in the front loop only. Crochet 4 single crochet, increase 1 stitch
Round 21: 6 single crochet, increase 1 stitch
Continue with single crochet until you have the width of the brim you want!
6. Finishing
Finish by cutting the yarn, leaving a 5-10 cm tail. Tie the remaining tail in a knot around the last loop to prevent it from unraveling. Tighten and hide the tail by attaching it through a few nearby loops. Do the same to the tail that was left from the start (if you haven't already crocheted it in so it's hidden).
Now the hat is ready :)
