On a local fair a friend of my husband-to-be came to our stand and picked one coolishek asking for a bigger one.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I usually crochet mainly for babies so I was quite surprised when he demanded \u00a0to be measured and placed an order for a man size. That was a challenge. To make a real man size coolishek was something which I had on my mind for a little while. So I tried and this is the result. It is not a big deal and I would like to share this pattern with you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Man-size Coolishek<\/strong> Suitable for\u00a0beginners<\/strong><\/p>\n US terminology:<\/strong> Each row starts with either 1 CH = Single Crochet or 2 CH = Half Double Crochet\/DC and ends with SlSt.<\/p>\n Green<\/strong> (hook 6) <\/p>\n Finish:<\/strong> Make\/sew the pompom to the hat. With a made pompom I usually pull the strings of the pompom through the top of the hat and sew the button from the inner part to secure the pompom.

\n18th – 22nd row: start with substitution then repeat\u00a0FP HDC and BP HDC (56) – due to lower size of hook it makes the coolishek a little bit smaller around the hat but this type of yarn has the tendency to get bigger, with this help it stays longer elastic
