'Famous Designer' Hat

Lion Brand^® Lion^® Suede

GAUGE:

2 shells + 3 rows = 2 inches [5 cm] over Shell pattern (Rnds 8-10) BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

NOTES:

The shaping of this hat seems unusual but will ultimately make hat as photographed.

Rnds 1-5 and Rnd 11 are increase rnds. Shells made in Rnds 3-5 and Rnd 11 will not be perfectly staggered, in order to accommodate increases.

In Rnds 5-10, shells will always be made in sc of previous rnd and scs will always be in center dc of shell in previous rnd.

Rnd 1 Ch 3 (counts as first dc), 11 dc in ring, join with slip st in top of beg ch – 12 dc.

Rnd 7 Join A and work from * and end at ** of Rnd 6. Skip 3 dc, join with slip st in top of beg sc, fasten off – 8 shells.
Rnds 8-10 Repeat Rnd 7, alternating A and B every rnd.

'Famous Designer' Hat Reviewed by Susan Harrison on 2008-08-03
I used Lion Suede Fuchsia and Waterlilies, which are a happy combination. The suede yarn itself was kind of a pain to work with because it grabs itself, and it leaves a residue on the hands. I ended up adding a couple more rounds to get the size that seemed right. My tension may have been too tight in the beginning. I probably won't make another of these hats, but the end result looks good and should make a nice gift.
