Flared Shell Brimmed Hat

© Cathy Phillips, April 2010

Hook sizes: H (5.0 mm), G (4.0 mm) for final sc rnd.

Approx. 200 yds light weight worsted yarn

Gauge is relative for this project, the most important gauge for this pattern is determining your own head size before beginning as this will be the gauge as to how wide the crown circle for YOUR hat needs to be. Not hook size, not yarn size, not the number of Rnds shown in the pattern, but your own head size.  

Hat Sizing Tip: Measure around head just above eyebrows (keeping tape level) and divide that measurement by 3.1416. The result is the width your crown circle needs to be before continuing to Rnd 9. Example, head measures 22” around; 22 ÷ 3.1416 = 7.0028; Crown circle needs to be 7”.

Notes for these two hats:

• 6-12 month size
• DK/Sport Weight Mercerized Cotton (Sinfonia on left, Saucy Sport on Right)
• 6 Round Crown measures 5-1/4", 16.5" circumference
• Skipped 1 Round (12) of Hat Body
• Skipped Rounds 20-21 of Brim

This pattern is similar to my Shell Brimmed Cloche but flares away from the head a bit more.

This hat was inspired by Melissa Rotert’s, Gulf Shores.

Crochet Hooks: H (5.0 mm); G (4.0mm) for final sc rnd

175 - 250 yds Light Weight Worsted (Village Caribbean Cotton, Red Heart Crème de la Crème)

Gauge is relative for this project, the most important gauge for this pattern is determining your own head size before beginning as this will be the gauge as to how wide the crown circle for YOUR hat needs to be. Not hook size, not yarn size, not the number of Rnds shown in the pattern, but your own head size. Once this is determined the rest of the pattern will size correctly.

Hat Sizing Tip: Measure around head just above eyebrows (keeping tape level) and divide that measurement by 3.1416. The result is the width your crown circle needs to be before continuing to Rnd 9. Example, head measures 22” around; 22 ÷ 3.1416 = 7.0028; Crown circle needs to be 7”.

I recently finished this baby blanket and thought I would share the "pattern" that I came up with as I was making it.

The finished size is, 33" x 37".

I used Lion Brand Cotton Ease [Blue: 3-1/2 skeins (725 yds), White: 1-1/2 skeins (311 yds), Lime: 3/8 skein (79 yds)], but any medium weight yarn would work.

J (6 mm) Hook  (roughly 7 pattern rows & 14 stitches = 4")

sc, dc alternating stitch pattern

Chain 108.

Row 1: sc into 2nd ch from hook, dc into next ch and repeat alternating across row, ending with sc. (107 st)

Row 2: Turn, ch 2 (or 3), dc into sc, sc into dc, repeat across row.

Row 3: Turn, ch 1, sc into dc, dc into sc, repeat across row.

Rows 4 - 90: Repeat rows 2 and 3 following the color pattern.

Color pattern by rows:

Blue: 30

White: 3

Lime: 2

White: 3

Blue: 14

White: 3

Lime: 2

White: 3

Blue: 30

Border:

White: 1 row sc, 1 row dc, 1 row sc

Lime: 2 rows sc

White: 1 row sc, 1 row dc, 1 row sc

Blue: 1 row reverse sc
