Cloche Hat [Teresa - The Art of Crochet]

Happy Friday!
If you are an avid fan of crochet and you google a lot, you must have come across Teresa's BLOG and YouTube tutorials.
I made one today:  Crocheted cloche hat using J hook(6 mm) and Loops & thread Impeccable worsted yarn (4 ply) in Chocolate.  Thanks to Teresa for this pattern.

I love the classic look and feminine feel of cloche hats.

It looks nice plain or I could add:
a.  Crocheted flower/s on one side
b.  a Pearl brooch that I made here 
c.  a 1 inch thick ribbon over the entire diameter of the hat slightly above the brim
d.  a nice colorful scarf for those cool days in spring

What do you think?
Happy crocheting everyone!

Crocheted Case for Android phone [Wednesday Crochet]

Today is Crochet Wednesday and I made a crocheted case case for my Android.  Yay! 
I made it following the video tutorial of Teresa of Art of Crochet.  Her video tutorials  are great for beginners and for those who want to improve or try out new crochet designs.
I used brown yarn and an olive green button for accent.  It took about an hour (with a few distractions) to finish it.  I love it! 
More crochet projects on another Wednesday.  Have fun!

Crochet Away! [Cloche Hat]


Hello friends!  How are you?  What have you been busy with?
I have been wanting to do another hat following The Art of Crochet's video tutorial.  I searched and found this:  Cloche hat.  It was a realtively basic hat to make, though it took me 4 hours.  I wanted to challenge myself by adding 2 rows of HDC near the brim and after some trial and error, it came out pretty nice.  I added 2 rows of HDC for the brim.
Lovely!  Thanks, Teresa!
