12 days of DIY crochet gifts to make: Day 6- chunky slouchy hat
Acquanetta Ferguson
Day 6 of the 12 days of DIY gifts to make presents a very fast chunky slouchy hat to whip up for those who need something fast.
The hat is very simple, using basic crochet stitches however going back forth between dc and sc, this hat has an interesting look, yet only takes a few hours to make.
Since it is a basic slouchy, this hat could also be embellished with buttons or a pom-pom, or leave as is if making for a male. The size as is should fit an average person, however increasing/decreasing the hook if needed for a different size.
The hat project time is about 1 to 2 hours.
Please do not post this pattern on your website or take it as your own. I ask that you instead link to my page, which will help with internet karma. Please note you can use this pattern for personal use and sell what you make. I only ask that you credit me as the pattern creator and link to this article. Thank you.
