Free Slouchy Cross Stitch Bobble Beret

Please enjoy my pattern! If you find any errors or have any questions, please contact me at ms.awesome.girl@gmail.com. Thanks and happy crocheting!

If you would like to download the PDF you can click here.







Materials

1 skein size 4 worsted weight yarn (I used Caron Simply Soft in Berry Blue 9609)
Size J (6.00 mm) crochet hook or size needed to get correct gauge
Yarn needle


Gauge

6 sts = 2“ in sc
Row gauge is not important because it is a slouchy hat and you can make it as long as you would like.

Approximate Finished Dimensions

adult - 20” brim diameter x 12” height

Abbreviations

ch - chain
dc - double crochet
mb- make bobble
rs - right side
rsc - reverse single crochet
sc - single crochet
sc2tog - single crochet 2 stitches together
sl st - slip stitch
st(s) - stitch(es)
ws - wrong side
xst - cross stitch

Pattern Notes
This pattern in written in American English terminology.
Rounds are joined with a slip stitch. You will only turn the work when specified in the pattern. You will not turn the rest of the rows.
When you “Ch 2” at the beginning of a dc row, it does not count as a dc. When you join with a sl st at the end of a row be sure to join to the top of the first dc and not to the ch-2. If you are not careful about this, you will add stitches to your rounds.
After turning, when you crochet in the same st, it will seem like you are crocheting to the right a bit. This is correct. Also make sure not to crochet in the slip stitch you used to join the previous row. If you do, you will be adding stitches to your row.
Instructions in *stars* are repeated the number of times indicated after the second *.
If you are not familiar with the magic loop, here is a good tutorial to learn the technique http://www.crochetme.com/forums/t/28917.aspx If you are still not comfortable with the technique you can “Ch 2. 6 sc in second chain from hook. Join with a sl st.” instead.

Special Stitches

mb - make bobble - Yarn over and insert hook into designated stitch. Yarn over and draw a loop through the stitch. Yarn over and draw through 2 loops on the hook. You will now have 2 loops still on your hook. *Yarn over and insert hook into same stitch. Yarn over and draw a loop through the stitch. Yarn over and draw through 2 loops on the hook* 2 times. You will now have a total of four loops on the hook. Yarn over and draw through all 4 loops.

rsc - reverse single crochet - You will be crocheting from left to right when doing this stitch. It it takes a bit to get used to it. Insert hook into stitch to the right of current stitch. Yarn over and draw through stitch. Yarn over and draw through both loops on hook.

xst - cross stitch - Skip one st. Dc in next st. Dc in skipped stitch. This counts as 2 stitches.

Variations

You can make this hat longer by repeating rows 10 - 13 more times. Make sure to end on row 12 if you decide to add repeats.
You can also make this hat with aran weight yarn. The fabric will be stiffer and the hat will be a bit bulkier. The red hat is made with I Love This yarn from Hobby Lobby in #50 Cranberry.

Pattern Testers

Hello!

I was just wondering if anyone is interested in testing patterns for me. I find it difficult to accurately test patterns when they are already so ingrained in my brain. I like to do small projects, hence, all the hat patterns. I do a lot of baby and adult hats. If anyone is interested please contact me, Brittany Cole at ms.awesome.girl@gmail.com.

Thanks and hope you all have a great day!

Free Basic Super Bulky Beanie Pattern




Here it is! Another free pattern. This hat has plenty of stretch. They fit both me and my husband comfortably.

Please contact me with any questions or errors that you find. My email is ms.awesome.girl@gmail.com You may sell items made from this pattern. Please just give me credit as the designer. Thanks for downloading and Happy Crocheting!

If you would like to download the PDF you can click here.

Materials
1 skein size 6 super bulky yarn (I used Lion Brand Hometown USA 4.94 ounces/81 yards)
Size L (8.00 mm) crochet hook or hook needed to get correct gauge
Yarn needle

Gauge
9 sts = 5” in dc

Approximate Finished Dimensions
Adult 20” x 8.5”

Abbreviations
ch - chain
sc - single crochet
st(s) - stitch(es)
sl st - slip stitch
dc - double crochet
rem - remaining

Notes
This pattern in written in American English terminology.
Rounds are joined with a slip stitch. Do not turn.
Instructions in *stars* are repeated the number of times indicated after the second *.
If you are not familiar with the magic loop, here is a good tutorial to learn the technique http://www.crochetme.com/forums/t/28917.aspx If you are still not comfortable with the technique you can chain 4 and join with a slip stitch instead.
Ch 2 at the beginning of a row does not count as a dc. I find that using a ch 2 and then dc in the same stitch keeps from getting the little gaps that often show at joins. Make sure to join to the top of the dc and not the 2nd ch of the ch 2 or you will be adding extra sts. If you do not like this technique, feel free to use a ch 2 or ch 3 as your first st and then finish the row as normal.


Instructions
Foundation Row: Form a magic loop. 6 sc in loop. Pull tight. Join with sl st to first sc. (6 sts)
Row 1: Ch 1. 2 sc in same stitch and each st around. Join with sl st to first sc. (12 sts)

So so long

Life has been crazy! Baby on the way and such! Since I have had to spend so much time on the couch, I have managed to finish a boat-load of projects. Hooray for productivity (and reproductivity!) I will post some pics soon.
