The Crochet Spiral Hat chunky pattern is one of the newest designs available, and you would be surprised how fast it hooks up. This type of technique is called tapestry crochet.
Usually, patterns like this have a chart to follow for the colour changes. It's not done like bobbins of individual balls, but the unused yarn is carried under the stitches. It depends on the colours you use and whether the colours can be hidden or not.
The Crochet Spiral Hat is a beautiful and quick example of this without much brain cell popping. I thought today's round-up would be neat to show you some tapestry crochet in other hats, too.

Polka Dotty Crochet Hat
This is an older design originally designed in the colour you see in the tutorial. It was then later updated with changing with the trends to being dark with more blending of the dots. It's a bit more complex in the work but turns out lovely.

Crochet Colorwork Hat
The Crochet Colorwork Hat is a skill that I have yet to master. I struggle with this concept in regular weight yarn as I tend to be really tight. This is using Split Single Crochet stitchwork. That splitting is what is making me tight.
How to do Split Single Crochet. Also called Shallow Single Crochet Stitch.
Mittens in Split Single Crochet
Here's a pair of mittens also in the same technique. I was able to do this concept as the yarn was bigger. This technique is better viewed from a distance as being up close, you can see the bleed-through of colours using this concept. The colour difference also plays a point. However, a person from a distance will look awesome. Like a dot matrix printer format. Up close we see dots, from a distance, we see the words or shapes.

Kids Navajo Crochet Hat
This is a great hat to have your kids be part of the decision on what colours they would have to see. In today’s era where peer pressure hits our younger generation really hard, deciding colours allows you to give your child a hat that they would like.
It’s using Canadiana Yarn by Yarnspirations.
Crochet Triangle Valley Hat
The Crochet Triangle Valley Hat is also using the same concept of doing the tapestry crochet. It is using back loops only for the texturing concept. There is a crochet diagram to follow.
Crochet Fair Isle Hat
The crochet fair isle hat is also a split single crochet concept. This is on my bucket list to crochet one day. Once I get my tension right, I am totally doing this.

Hi I am working on Hat for Fall Sal. I need ribbing 22 1/2 inches. Will the pattern still work out for pattern part of hat?
Mikey says
I think you could. The repeat is in 4's. So you could do the chart but crochet 56 evenly around the edge of the bring instead of 52. It just means you have 1 more repeat. You will follow the pattern as written. It means you will have just a bit more to close at the top which means pull the strand shut to close.

Thank you?
