HALF LOOPED
copyright © 06/15/2004 Dot Matthews
I and G hook
ww yarn - not sure of amount, my finished hat weighs 5 oz
This hat is fairly large and it "grows" as you are making it. You might want to take this into consideration and adjust your hook sizes to suit your own needs.
HAT
With larger hook, Ch 4, join
Row 1: Ch 1, 12 sc in ring. Do not join, use marker to show beginning of rows.
Work in back loop only on rows 2 through 25, leaving the front loop free to use later in the pattern.
Row 2: 2 sc in each st around.
Row 3: (1 sc in next st, 2 sc in next st) around
Row 4: (1 sc in next 2 sts, 2 sc in next st) around
Row 5: (1 sc in next 3 sts, 2 sc in next st) around
Row 6: 1 sc in each st around
Row 7: (2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 4 sts) around
Row 8: 1 sc in each st around
Row 9: (2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 5 sts) around
Row 10: 1 sc in each st around
Row 11: (2 sc in next st, 1 sc in next 6 sts) around
Row 12 - 25: 1 sc in each st around
CHAIN LOOPS (the chain loops are placed in the unworked loops of the sc stitches)
With smaller hook, Ch 1, turn, sl st in free loop of last sc made, ch 10, sl st in same loop.
Sl st in free loop of next st, ch 10, sl st in same st. continue for 10 rounds or until it is as "fluffy" as you want it. fasten off and weave in ends.

Hi Dot,
I found a wonderful hat design by you in The New Crochet by Terry Taylor, called Baroque Looped Hat, which looks similar to this design. However, I'm having trouble with the one in the book. It comes out VERY small and seems to end increases too soon, making it more boxy than the picture shows. Van you help? I'm teaching a homeschool crochet class, and we'd like to make some chemo caps, and this design looks lovely. Thanks! Lisa |

Hi Dorothy,
I'm very happy that you found the Butterfly Beauty. Chemo patients are who I had in mind while I was creating this hat. I hope you enjoy wearing it and I wish you a speedy recovery. My thoughts and prayers are with you. |
