- Main color: 80 yards
- Secondary color: 20 yards

Hat Pattern:
Starting with the Body:
Round 1:
- Start with a slip knot.
- Chain 4 and join with a slip stitch to form a ring.
- Chain 3 (counts as the first double crochet).
- Make 11 more double crochets into the ring.
- You will have a total of 12 stitches for this round.
Round 2:
- Slip stitch into the top chain of the starting chain-3.
- Chain 3 (counts as one double crochet).
- In this round, put two double crochets in every stitch around.
- You will have 24 stitches for this round.
In Round 3:
- Chain 3 (counts as one double crochet).
- 2 double crochets in the next stitch, 1 double crochet in the next stitch – repeat around.
- You will end up with 36 stitches for this round.
Round 4:
- Chain 3.
For Double Crochet Even:
- Work 1 double crochet into each of the next 4 stitches.
- After 4 “even” stitches, do 2 double crochet in the next stitch.
- Repeat 4 even stitches, 2 in the next around. This increases your stitch count evenly.
Rounds 5-9:
- Chain 3 and turn.
- Work 1 double crochet into each stitch around.
- These rounds are worked even without increases.
Transitioning to Secondary Color & Working the Brim:

Row 1 of Brim:
- Chain 1 with the new color.
- Work 1 single crochet into each stitch around.
Row 2 of Brim:
- Chain 1 and turn your work.
- Skip the first stitch, 2 single crochets in the next.
- Follow with a pattern of 4 single crochets even, 2 single crochets in the next stitch around the brim.
- Continue with 3 even, and then 2 in the next stitch, following the pattern to create a sloped brim effect.
Finishing Touches:
Reverse Single Crochet Edging:
- Upon completing the brim rows, work a reverse single crochet edging around the hat and brim’s edge for a finished look.
Weaving in Ends:
- Use the tapestry needle to securely weave in all loose ends.
