Spiral hat by Lucie - English version by Elizabeth Lowe

  
Swirly hat  (slouchy) --- free pattern

Version française : ici
 
Here is my little swirly hat…the idea just popped out of my head. I wanted to crochet a new stripped hat that would be easy and quick to make. I also wanted there to be almost no strings to thread.
So here goes!
 
Yarn: Impeccable et Caron
 
Hook: 6mm
Row 1: make a 7 sc circle using black- don’t join them together.
 
Row 2: in contrasting color , 2 sc on each sc of the previous row (it is the only row in pink where there is an increase)--- don’t close
 
Crochet each row as if it were the continuation of the previous row (See picture below)
 

 
Row 3 : alternate 1 sc, 2 sc on the stitches
 
Even rows: all in sc
 
Row 5:( one sc on the 2 sc of the previous row, 2 sc on the sc of the previous row). Repeat this throughout the whole row.
 
Row 7: (1 sc on the 3 sc of the previous row, 2 sc on the sc of the previous row)
Repeat throughout the whole row.
 
Row 9: (1 sc on the 4 sc of the previous row, 2 sc on the sc of the previous row) repeat throughout the whole row.
 
Row 11: (1 sc on the 5 sc of the previous row, 2 sc on the sc of the previous row) Repeat throughout the whole row.
 
Keep increasing until you’ve reached the desired circumference.
After that, finish off everything in sc.

After that, everything is in sc. To finish off, I did one row using the crabstich. I picked up the stitches from the back and crocheted them in sc. The last row is done using the crabstitch.
 
Happy crocheting!
