Red Hat with Brim

Red Hat with Brim

By Designers: Gloria Clayton and James Lee Kelley

This pattern uses US/American English Crochet Terms

Hat part is done using most of the pattern from Cotton Candy Spring Hat.

Sport weight cotton, ILTC from Hobby Lobby should work nicely; even though it is considered worsted weight it is very light.

J hook and an E hook

SPECIAL NOTE:   I did not join my rounds after the base.  If it is easier for you sl st and ch1 and continue work instead. Be sure to mark ending sts or it is easy to get lost!

BRIM:

With E hook sl st into beg V-st.  ch1, 2 sc, *1 sc into space between V-st, 2 sc in next V-st* repeat between the *s around, sl st into first sc you made. This is the base for your brim.

Rnd 1- Increase round. Ch 1, 2 sc in same sc, *sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc*. repeat between the *s around. Do not join work but mark last sc with st marker or bit of yarn.

Rnds 2 -- 4 - Sc evenly around marking each ending sc as you come around.  On row 4 do 2 sl st in last 2 sc.  Do not fasten off.
