Crocheted Cowboy Hat
I have received some requests for the pattern for the Cowboy Hat I crocheted and showed fotos of on this blog. To all who have requested the pattern, and those who don't know it yet, but will in the future, it is not my original pattern, so I cannot send it to you. However, I will direct you to the source which is Debbie Stoller's book "The Happy Hooker." The pattern turns out a hat that is a bit larger than expected. What I did was decrease right before the cluster rows. You can also decrease during or after the cluster rows, but that is a bit harder. It is not an easy pattern, but a fun challenge for crocheters. I wrote out in large type the instructions for the cluster. If you make the last row of the clusters a different color, it looks as if you have a hat band on it. If you make it would you e-mail a foto of it? I would like to add it to my blog. I have already received requests to crochet this for others. One woman offered me $100. to make a black one for her. It's a great challenging project -- just remember to try it on when you reach the cluster rows. You could also use a smaller crochet hook. My main e-mail is calumet133@yahoo.com. Would luv to hear from you.
