Pattern Notes

  • Use an I-9 5.5 mm crochet hook for the hat.
  • Use a G-6 4 mm crochet hook for the kisses tag.
  • The chain at the beginning of each round does not count as your first stitch. 
  • Join each round with a slip stitch to the first stitch made in that round. 
  • Repeat instructions between the asterisks (*) for the rest of the round.
  • You are crocheting in the round from the top of the hat down.
  • The pattern is written in US terms.

Magic Circle Alternative

If you’re not comfortable with using a magic circle, you can use an alternative method to make round 1 of the pattern. This method is just as effective and might be easier for beginners.

Round 1: Chain 4, make 3 dc in the 4th ch from the hook, join (3 stitches)
