Crochet Mini Twist Hat

The crochet mini twist hat is an adorable and stylish accessory that adds a fun twist to any outfit. With its intricate crochet design and mini size, it's perfect for keeping your head warm while looking cute and fashionable. Whether you're heading out on a chilly day or just want to add a touch of personality to your look, this hat is a must-have in your wardrobe. So, grab your yarn and crochet hook and get ready to create your own mini twist hat that's bound to turn heads and keep you cozy all season long!

You will need:

  • Red Heart Super Saver Brushed (or similar medium weight yarn)
  • I Crochet Hook (5.25 mm)
  • Yarn Needle
  • optional: Faux Fur Pom Pom

Instructions:

The Mini Twist Hat is worked from the top down, starting with a magic ring.
Each hat has a middle section of mini cable twists made with post stitches, both regular and crossed.
The ribbing is a post stitch ribbing, made with alternating front and back post stitches.
An optional faux fur pom pom can be added at the end. My favorite way to add a faux fur pom pom is to use an elastic loop pom pom, I sew a button to the inside of the hat, then pull the loop through to the inside of the hat and loop around the button. 

Gauge:

4 rounds of dc (40 dc) = 4.5"
The crown diameter and hat height for each hat size is listed

Special Stitch:

Front Post Double Crochet (fpdc): work this stitch just like a normal double crochet stitch, but instead of working into the top of the stitch like you normally would insert your hook around the post of the stitch from front to back, around the post, and back out the front pulling the post forward to the front
Back Post Double Crochet (bpdc): work this stitch just like a normal double crochet stitch, but instead of working into the top of the stitch like you normally would insert your hook around the post of the stitch from back to front, around the post, and back out the back pulling the post back to the inside
