Monkey Hat
Free Crochet Pattern
MATERIALS:Red Heart 4 ply yarns in the colors you like (light & dark of same color) small amount of cardboard, needle to take yarn, felt, craft glue, size J (adult) & F (child) hooks or hooks to obtain gauge.
GAUGE: J Hook: 3 hdc = 1”, 2 rows hdc = 1”, 4 (sc, dc st combination) = 1-1\4”, 4 rows pattern = 1-1\2”. F hook: 4 hdc = 1”, 3 rows hdc = 1”, 4 (sc, dc st combination) = 1”. 3 rows pattern = 1”.
FINISHED SIZE: Hat made with J hook: 23” inside measurement and will fit most adults. Hat made with F hook: 18” inside measurement & will fit 6 mo – 1 yr old.
About the yarn I used:
I used Red Heart Super Saver (#4) yarn, but any #4 yarn will make a good substitution, just make sure you get the exact gauge as stated in the pattern when you make a sample swatch. If your gauge is bigger than stated, go down one size in your hook. If your sample gauge is smaller than stated, go up one size in your hook.
