Witch hat

Copied mostly from http://www.yarnspirations.com/assets/files/pattern-files/pdf/Lily_SugarnCreamweb173_cr_hats.en_US.pdf

I changed the brim on round 41 I did 3DC in each hdc around.

If I do this pattern again I would use a larger hook, the hat is a bit smaller than I had hoped

Ear flap Minion Hat


Fits 4yo head
H hook, red heart super saver yarn

8dc into ring, sl st in first dc (8dc)
Ch 2, 2dc in each dc around (16dc)
Ch 2, 2dc in first dc, 1 dc in next, repeat around (24dc)

Repeat adding 8 dc to each row until you get the right size

When you've got the right size, 3 rows of 1dc in each stitch around.
