Pattern Info

Pattern info for this project can be found here:
Fashionable Flapper Hat »

Instructions

The loopy scarf is called Traveler Scarf and can also be found on the Red Heart Site, http://bit.ly/lWau2x

The hat is made base up and therefore getting the proper gauge is very important.

Difficulty:

Category: Crocheting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Retro / Vintage, Classic, Hipster, Whimsical, Romantic


Materials

2 skeins Red Heart Soft Soldis yarn in 3729 Grape. 1 Button, 1-1/2"; Belle by Dritz.

What are you most proud of?

Picking just the "right" button for embellishment, I really think it makes the hat.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

HAT: I highly recommend doing the swatch when making the hat since it is made from base up and not crown down it is important to get the correct gauge right from the start. I should have gone up a hook size as I crochet tightly.


SCARF: Decide whether or not you want to do the double strand or if you want to add a few chains to make it wider and use a single strand. I will use a single strand next time I make it.

Beautiful job. I love the pin you have on the hat. It's much better than the one on the pattern. And thanks so much for the pattern link.

It isn't a pin, it is a button.
