Casual Crochet Bucket Hat

"The Casual Crochet Bucket Hat is a breathable, easy-to-wear summer hat - made with Bernat Maker to match the Casual Bag Set! To crochet the Casual Crochet Bucket Hat, I used Bernat Maker yarn. Bernat Maker inspired the Casual Crossbody Bag, Pouch, and Sunglasses Case, and those inspired a request for a matching Bucket Hat! I used the same stitches, and the leftover bits of yarn for a matching set - but this will look fantastic in solid colors too. And then it’s a one-skein pattern! For this hat, I wanted a looser fit, which I prefer for hot weather, so I used standard hdc stitches for a more open weave. For the sides, I used the hhdc stitches so that we have that great texture. And then the brim alternates for a fun striping effect! It won’t stick to your head, it won’t crush your hair, and the brim keeps the sun off your face and out of your eyes. We know crochet is self-care already… but here it’s health care too!"
