In a Spiral Hat

In a Spiral Hat
In a Spiral Hat
This hat pattern is very easy to crochet. The most difficult thing is to keep track of your stitches during the increase rounds. I found myself messing up continuously until I came up with a new way of counting to distinguish between the increase and single stitches. :) You just have to remember that you’re omitting the last stitch when working with CB. I’ll be publishing another hat using the same stitch that’s started at the bottom, which will be a lot easier to keep track of.

The hat is started with two colors and worked in a continuous spiral using the crunch stitch. It gives you a nice and clean two-toned look on the one side and a lot of texture on the other side. You could actually use both sides as the right side.

I made several hats with this design. My first hat was made with a 4.00mm throughout the whole pattern. This is the tan and black hat pictured below. It fits me perfectly! It’s a bit tight, but still nice in my opinion. The black and grey was crocheted with a 5.50mm and it’s slightly bigger. Then for a brim I switched back to a 4.00mm to make it fit me. You can use any hook that you need in order to make it fit you. :) Scroll down to the bottom to see the different hats.

Skill Level: Intermediate

Materials: Yarn: Caron Simply Soft (2 colors)
Hook Size: I/9-5.50mm and an H-8/5.00mm or a G/4.00mm depending on the size you need for the brim.

Measurements:
Gauge: 4″ across first 6 rounds.
Finished Size: The body of the hat measures 22.5″. As for the brim, it measures 19″ when done with a 4.00mm hook, and 21.5 when done with a 5.00mm.

Rnd 6: With CA, *(sl st, hdc) in next 2 sts, (sl st in next st, hdc in next st) 4 times; rep from * around.(48 sts)

Rnd 7: With CB, hdc in next st, *(sl st, hdc) in next 2 sts, (sl st in next st, hdc in next st) 5 times; rep from * around omitting the last hdc; (56 sts)

Rnd 8: With CA, *(sl st, hdc) in next 2 sts, (sl st in next st, hdc in next st) 6 times; rep from * around.(64 sts)

Rnd 10: With CA, *(sl st, hdc) in next 2 sts, (sl st in next st, hdc in next st) 8 times; rep from * around.(80 sts)

Begin Working in Even Rounds

Rnd 11: With CB, *hdc in next sl st, sl st in next hdc; rep from * around; (80 sts)

Rnd 12: With CA, *sl st in next hdc, hdc in next sl st; rep from * around; (80 sts)

Rnds 13-32: Continue with rnds 11 and 12 until you are about 1″ from desired height making sure to end with CA. (For a deeper hat continue with more rounds.) With CB, sl st into next st. FO CB.

Note: Depending on how large you need the brim you can continue crocheting with the same hook or switch to a smaller hook. I switched to a G/4.00mm hook, which resulted in a 19″ circumference.

Next Rnd: With CA, sl st into next 2 sts (last sl st made acts as a joining sl st and does not count as a st.); Ch 1, working in blo, sc in same st as where last sl st was made, sc in next st and in each st around; join with sl st in first sc. (80 sts)

Last 3 Rnds: With CA and working in blo, sc in each st around; join with sl st to first sc. FO.

Crocheted with a G/4.00mm from start to finish. It's more like a beanie and will fit adult extra small or children/teens.
