Poppin’ Pumpkin Hat

Poppin' Pumpkin Hat ~ FREE Crochet Pattern Adjustable To Any Size
Poppin’ Pumpkin Hat ~ FREE Crochet Pattern Adjustable To Any Size

As with most of my hat patterns, this one can be adjusted to any size that you like. It features the front post post stitch, including the front post popcorn, to give you lots of textures to keep you warm in the cool fall weather.

And in orange it can be a fall pumpkin, but why not choose any color that you like for an any-season hat. The stem can easily be omitted and replaced with a pom pom, making it easy to crochet for anyone.

Another beauty of this pattern is that you can basically use any hook and yarn size that you have on hand. It’s an easy multiple of 4, and rounds can be repeated as many times as needed to obtain the desired height.

    Super cute little hat! Love the fun alternating pattern of the ribbing and the bobbles. Creates such a fun texture, and look.
