CROCHETED HAT FROM TOP TO BOTTOM

CROCHETED HAT

I am using a size 5:00mm crochet hook, I used Red Heart Boutique, Unforgettable.  I also made it in Bernat Softee Baby which is a size 3 light and I used a size 5:00mm crochet hook. Both yarns work out fine.

REMEMBER that the numbers on the video correspond to the numbers on the written pattern.

dc = double crochet      *  *  rep what is in between the stars
sc = single crochet        st = stitch
ss = slip stitch               sp = space
ch = chain                      cnr = corner
Beg ch3 = 1dc                       picot = ch3, 1sc into the 1st ch
dc tog = double crochet together
