Dark Skies Tunisian Hat
"This fun and creative Tunisian crochet hat is designed for chunky yarn and the pattern comes in four adult sizes: Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large. The body of the hat is worked in the beautiful Tunisian Simple Stitch, while the ribbed brim (which uses single crochet back loop only) adds a classic touch. A unique feature of this pattern is the option for personalization. Instructions are included for weaving different coloured yarns through the vertical bars of the Tunisian Simple Stitch, allowing for many creative possibilities. /DETAILS Skill level : Easy (must have knowledge of Tunisian crochet) US Terminology /MATERIALS Chunky Yarn; approx. 165, (183, 203, 214) yds Small amount of yarn for optional weaving 8mm Tunisian Crochet Hook (body of hat) 6mm Standard Crochet Hook (brim) Faux Fur Pompom (optional) Stitch marker Scissors Yarn Needle /FINISHED SIZE Hat Size Head Circumference (inches) Height (inches) Approx.
