Crochet a Frenzy Bun Hat
Ponytail hats, Messy Bun Hat, whatever you want to call them have been around for a while. But now they are hitting the internet in a frenzy! Yarnspirations has the Pebble Texture Hat and Mikey has a tutorial for it.
Laura Jean's goal is to modified their pattern so you can use the skills learned here at The Crochet Crowd to make your very own.
The written pattern is Crochet Pebble Texture Hat on Yarnspirations
The tutorial is at this link.

Crochet a Frenzy Bun Hat Pattern
Materials:
Laura Jean used the worsted weight and a size H hook/ 5.00mm and skipped the first three rounds. Let’s rock this thing! And get started.
- Instructions:
You will need a foundation to build your hat on.
Chain 24 and join with a slip stitch to the first chain to form a loop.
Round 1: crocheting into the loop made. Chain up 3, you will count this as a dc. Make 32 more dc into the ring. (33 dc)
GO now to Round 5: Follow the written pattern from this point on.
If you are following the tutorial Mikey starts working on Round 5 at the 8 minutes 30-second mark.
Just follow the pattern and or tutorial to finish your new Ponytail Hat. UPDATE AND ADDITIONAL HELP: Stitch counts as follows:
Rnd 4: 33
Rnd 5 and 6: 48
Rnd 7 and 8: 62
Rnd 9: 68.
Note: On the dcfp as in the tutorial Mikey is skipping the ch-3 dc from the previous row; then doing the first dcfp in the next dc and the second one that crosses over will go around the same ch-3dc just skipped.

Is there maybe a simpler pattern instead of the pebble pattern??? That would be a big help!!!!
Jeanne - The Crochet Crowd says
Any top down hat could be done by using this method.
Millie says
In your tutorial.. How many DC you have on round 4? I know on instructions it says 33, however, with that stich count and following your tutorial I'm off by 1 st. I've redone step 5 five times and I get sane results. Pls help

Thank you SO much for this! I got a request yesterday from a friend with two teen girls wanting these, but I wasn't sure how to start the hat, and every pattern I have found needs to be purchased. They may be small prices, but as a just graduated unemployed college student, every penny counts! Thanks!
