Lazy Day Hat

I remember I had a really fun time knitting the Lazy Day Scarf back in the Spring of 2018, with its simple lace pattern and all the beads and tassels I added. When I was diving into my stash a month ago, I found a skein left of the same yarn, and since unofficially I've become a hat maker in 2020, a matching hat idea came to my mind right away.

Windows Hat

By Wiam's Crafts June 28, 2020 // 4 comments

Hello my fellow crochet enthusiast! This Hat is an accompanying piece to a crochet shawl called "Windows Shawl", which you can find posted here on AllFreeCrochet.com's website, as part of their 10th birthday celebration, so go check it out. This matching set has a lovely window-like pattern, and it is one of my favorite designs for summer. I made two variations of this hat, the pink one, which has 4 "rows" of the window pattern, and the dark gray one, which I made using a bulkier yarn, and it features only 2 window rows. I hope you get to make one or both. Happy crocheting!
