Earning-My-Cape: Child's Slouchy Hat With Brim

IMPORTANT NOTE

Hello, and welcome.

I would like to inform you that I AM MOVING.

...well, sort of. I have started a new blog, Oui Crochet, that focuses just on crochet, crochet patterns, and crochet resources. I am in the process of building it up as a one stop shop for all things crochet, and I am very excited about it. I hope you will come over and check out my progress. :)

I will be moving my patterns from this site, to my new site. My idea is to leave this site active, so that you can still access other aspects of this site. I will also leave a modified "introduction" post where each pattern is on this site, as to keep all links active and make it so that you can easily locate the pattern's new home. As an added bonus, you will also find new printable/downloadable versions of my patterns.
I apologize for any inconvenience, but I assure you, this change is a positive one. I look forward to seeing you at Oui Crochet.
Happy Crocheting!

Child's Slouchy Hat With Brim (free crochet pattern)

I had an idea in mind for a hat for my daughters. I searched images online, and found some that were close, but not exactly what I wanted. I ended up borrowing bits and pieces from a few different patterns, tearing out the work, making changes, and starting over... again... and again...
The frustration paid off, though. I finally came up with some little hats that I like!
These hats are child sized. They fit my 5 year old, 7 year old, and 1 1/2 year old, so they are fairly forgiving in sizing. OK, I just got up and tried one on my 12 year old (I don't think he was too happy about that... sorry kiddo!) It fit. So yeah, it fits a wide range of child sizes.
