Begin making crown:

Row 1, ch 3, work 12 dc in 3^rd ch from hook (or make magic ring, ch 2 and work 12 dc into magic ring) to join, sl st into the 1^st dc of this round (12 dc)

Row 2, ch 2, work 2 dc in same space as join, work 2 dc in each st to end of the round, to join, sl st into the 1^st dc of this round (24 dc)

Row 3, ch 2, work 1 dc in same space as join, work 2 dc in next dc, *work 1 dc in next dc, work 2 dc in next dc*, repeat from *to* to end, to join, sl st into the 1^st dc of this round (36 dc)

Row 4, ch 2, work 1 dc in same space as join, work 1 dc in next dc, work 2 dc in next dc, *work 1 dc in each of next 2 dc, work 2 dc in next dc*, repeat from *to* to end, to join, sl st into the 1^st dc of this round (48 dc)

My crown now measures approx 13 inches around-stop increases.

Row 5, ch 2, work 1 dc in each dc to end of the round, to join, sl st into the 1^st dc of this round (48 dc)

Begin Pattern Rounds

Row 1, ch 1, work 1 sc in same space as join, ch 3, skip 2 st’s, work 1 sc in next st, skip 2 st’s, work 7 dc in next st, skip 2 st’s, work 1 sc in next, ch 3, skip 2 st’s, *work 1 sc in next st, ch 3, skip 2 st’s, work 1 sc in next, skip 2 st’s, work 7 dc in next, skip 2 st’s, work 1 sc in next, ch 3, skip 2 st’s *, repeat from *to* to end,sl st into the 1^st sc of this round

Tip for row 2, each group of 7 dc’s will have 1 cluster st worked into each dc. = 7 clusters.

Row 2, ch 1, (work 1 sc, ch 2, 1sc), in same space as join, ch 1, work a cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 2, work 1 cluster in next dc, ch 2, work 1 cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 1, skip the ch 3, *work (1 sc, ch 2, 1 sc), in the next sc, ch 1, work a cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 2, work 1 cluster in next dc, ch 2, work 1 cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 1, skip the ch 3*, repeat from *to* to end, sl st into the ch 2 space between the sc’s

Row 3, ch 4, work 3 dc in same space as join, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, *work 7 dc in ch 2 space between the next 2 sc’s, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster*, repeat from *to* to end, work 3 dc in the same space as the first ch 4 and 3 dc, to join, sl st into the ch 3 space of the beginning ch 4

Row 4, ch 5, work 1 cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 1, skip the 3 chain, (work 1 sc, ch 2, 1sc), in next sc, * work a cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 2, work 1 cluster in next dc, ch 2, work 1 cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 1, skip the ch 3, work (1 sc, ch 2, 1 sc), in the next sc, ch 1, *repeat from *to* to end, work a cluster st in the 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd dc of the previous round, ch 2, sl st into the 3^rd ch of the beginning ch 5

Row 5, ch 1, work 1 sc in same space as join, ch 3, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in next cluster, work 7 dc in the ch 2 space between the next 2 sc’s, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3, *skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, work 7 dc in the ch 2 space between the next 2 sc’s, skip 1 cluster, work 1 sc in the next cluster, ch 3,* repeat from *to* to end, sl st into the 1^st sc of this round

Row 6, ch 1, (work 1 sc, ch 2, 1sc), in same space as join, ch 1, work a cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 2, work 1 cluster in next dc, ch 2, work 1 cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 1, skip the ch 3, *work (1 sc, ch 2, 1 sc), in the next sc, ch 1, work a cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 2, work 1 cluster in next dc, ch 2, work 1 cluster in each of the next 3 dc’s, ch 1, skip the ch 3*, repeat from *to* to end, sl st into the ch 2 space between the sc’s

Row 7, repeat row 3

My hat is now approx 5 inches in length, I am going to stop the pattern sequence and add a rib edge. If you like the look of the scallop edge, do a few more pattern rows for length desired, finishing on a row with the 7 dc groups.

Begin Simple Rib Hat Edge

Row 1, ch 2, work 1 dc in same space as join, work 1 dc in each of the next 3 dc, work 2 dc in the next ch space, work 1 dc in the sc, work 2 dc in the next ch space, *work 1 dc in each of the next 7 dc, work 2 dc in the next ch space, work 1 dc in the sc, work 2 dc in the next ch space*, repeat from *to* to end, work 1 dc in each of the next 3 dc, sl to join in the 1^st dc of this round, (48 dc)

Row 2, ch 2 work 1 dc in same space as join, work 1 fpdc around the next st, *work 1 dc in next st, work 1 fpdc around the next st*, repeat from *to* to end, sl st to join, into 1^st dc of this round (48 dc)

Row 3, repeat row 2, (you can also make your hat longer if you to choose to)

I like to finish my hats with 1 round of 1 hdc in each st to end, this can prevent curling/stretching of the hat edge.

Row 4, ch 1, work 1 hdc in each st to end, sl st to join in beginning hdc, tie off and sew in ends
