Round 15: Ch 2, dc all around, slip st in beg stitch.

Round 16: * Sk 1, 4 dc in same st, sk 1 sc in next st,* * repeat *, sl st in beg. Stitch.

Finish off.

Sew your button on the side of your beanie. You will want to make sure your button is the right size for the opening. The one I used was a 1” button and it worked well with both these flowers.



Easy flower:

Ch 5, join with sl st in first ch.
Ch 1, sc 9 into ring (crocheting over tail as you go), join with sl st in first sc. (9 sts)
Ch 1, *sc 2 into st, sc 1 into next st, rep from * around; join with sl st in first sc. (14 sts)
Ch 3, *dc 3 into st, continue around; join with sl st in first dc. (42 sts)
Picot edge: *sc into st, ch2, sc into same st, rep from * around; join with sl st in first picot and finish off.

Sew a button or large bead in the center of the flower.

Note: If you want a smaller flower, simply sc in each round instead of dc.

Another easy flower:

CH 5. Form a loop.

1) sc ch 3, 5 times in loop.

2) Sl st in loop. Ch 3, 9 dc, sc in previous round. 10 dc in next loop, sc in previous loop. Continue around three more times, sc and s; st in beg ch. If desired, sc all the way around in contrasting color, sc in row underneath to separate flower petals.

NOTE: You can use this pattern for anything you want. In fact, you can use any hat pattern you want. I'm just sharing what I came up with. Hope it gives you some great ideas.

I plan to make this hat and many other types to give out on the bus to all the polite girls and boys that give up their seats to the elderly. I travel the bus every day and see so many diplay kindness that I think it is time we show appreciation.

Your pattern will be one of many given out thank you.
