1. Hat is worked in rounds beginning at top of hat. Sections
of single crochet are alternated with sections of a texture
pattern created with half double crochet and slip stitches.
In single crochet sections, the last stitch of each round
is joined to the first stitch with a slip stitch. In texture
pattern sections, only the first and last rounds are joined.
Pay careful attention to instructions to know when to join
and when not.
2. The texture pattern is created by working half double
crochet stitches into the slip stitches and slip stitches into
the half double crochet stitches of the previous round.
When working increase rounds not all half double crochet
stitches are worked into slip stitches and not all slip
stitches are worked into half double crochet stitches, but
half double crochet stitches are always alternated with
slip stitches.
3. Only turn rounds when instructed to do so. Single crochet
sections are worked with right side facing, and texture
pattern sections are worked with wrong side facing.
