Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Crochet the Brim
Using the red yarn, make a chain that fits around your head. Join the ends of the chain with a slip stitch, being careful not to twist the chain. Then, work single crochet stitches into each chain stitch around, joining with a slip stitch at the end of each round. Continue working rounds of single crochet until the brim is the desired width.
Step 2: Crochet the Body of the Hat
Switch to the white yarn and work rounds of single crochet, increasing at regular intervals to create a dome shape. When the body of the hat is the desired height, switch to the green yarn and work a few rounds of single crochet.
Step 3: Add the Strawberry Seeds
Using the red yarn, embroider small seed shapes onto the white part of the hat. These can be done randomly or in a pattern, depending on your preference.
Step 4: Crochet the Stem and Leaves
Switch back to the green yarn and make a chain of about 5 stitches. Work single crochet stitches into each chain stitch, then work additional rounds of single crochet until the stem is the desired length. For the leaves, make a chain of about 10 stitches, then work single crochet stitches into each chain stitch. At the end of each row, chain one and turn. When the leaves are the desired size, attach them to the top of the stem with a slip stitch.
Step 5: Finishing Touches
Weave in any loose ends and trim any excess yarn. Your strawberry pattern hat is now complete!
