Autumn Crochet Hat
"This Autumn crochet hat is so stylish with the textured crochet stitches. Create something that is both warm and beautiful at the same time. Using a combination of stitches in alternating rows provides such a fashion statement. Textured Crochet Technique Don’t let the textured look scare you. It is simpler than you may think to achieve this textured crochet technique. To get the unique textured look a front post double crochet and back post double crochet are used. The ridge is completed by using a front post single crochet stitch. There is also two rows of double crochet between."
