I had this type of coolishek on my mind for a while. I tried a knitted Nordic patterns years ago but never in crochet version. Until yesterday.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
A Christmas Eve and a Christmas tree was a perfect inspiration and this hat pattern was a matter of moments. It is surprisingly easy. It would be great if anyone try it and build up on this idea to inspire others. Do not hesitate to post pictures of your projects here in the comments or on my FB page Krampolinka<\/a>.<\/p>\n Before you start crocheting please read Useful tips. This part is build up on Crochet Lessons Learned attempts related to the pattern and I would like to update this part of the article\u00a0whenever anyone\u00a0add something useful for the others.<\/p>\n USEFUL TIPS<\/strong><\/p>\n So let\u00b4s try.<\/p>\n Baby coolishek with a Norwegian pattern<\/strong> Suitable for\u00a0pre-intermediate<\/strong><\/p>\n US terminology:<\/strong> Each row starts with either 1 CH = Single Crochet or 2 CH = Half Double Crochet and ends with SlSt. I do not mention it in the pattern.<\/p>\n Dark blue\u00a0(hook 6)<\/strong> Now add white yarn and lead it behind the work. TIP: When you insert the hook in the loop, add also the white yarn and crochet around this (look in the gallery I took picture of the inside part of the hat). You avoid to have a loosen strings inside the hat. In the fourth row crochet each 8th stitch with a white yarn.<\/strong> In the fifth row crochet each 9th stitch with a white yarn<\/strong> and start from the fifth<\/strong> SC. In the sixth row crochet each 9th stitch with a white<\/strong> yarn and start from the third<\/strong> SC. 7th row: ONLY BLUE<\/strong> crochet 45 SC around the hat<\/p>\n Now add the white yarn<\/strong> again. Norwegian pattern:<\/strong> Only white yarn, hook 5<\/strong> Crochet or sew the pompom and the decorative button.<\/p>\n And that it is.\u00a0Please click on any advertisement or share<\/strong> this pattern on social networks as a \u201cthank you\u201d for this free pattern.
