Finished this hat yesterday! The swirl pattern looks like a hat I got in Spain many years ago, but I think my old hat uses short rows to make the top of the hat more tapered instead of a straight tube. Also featuring the worst Pom Pom I’ve ever made.

I am so happy to be able to finally release my newest crochet pattern the "Swirl Hat". This free design is available in three sizes and can easily be customized to feature a crochet flower button for those who prefer a little embellishment. With or without the flower... either way I think would be lovely.
For my three hats I chose to use Lion Brand Vanna's Choice, which seems to becoming another one of my favorite go to yarns! I love natural tones so I picked out some great earthy colors in Olive, Linen and Taupe.
Simply scroll down to find the free pattern to start making one of your own.
