Crochet Modern Granny Hat #MG
Hook up my Modern Granny #MG Hat and be warm and trending! I used less than half a cake of Caron Sprinkle Cakes for this hat, but it would look great with Caron Tea Cakes and Caron Chunky Cakes.
When I was scrolling through the fabulous pictures on The Crochet Crowd one day, I saw someone had posted a picture of their #MG scarf, and was asking if anyone knew a pattern for a hat that would go with it. I thought to myself that we really need a #MG Hat to match the #MG scarf, so I sat down and designed one.
Now, before you ask, yes, this hat would look awesome with the original Caron Cakes and the Caron Big Cakes! Because the Caron Sprinkle/Tea/Chunky Cakes are a 6 weight and the original Caron Cakes/Big Cakes are a 4 weight, the pattern would need to be tweaked to work with the different weight of yarn...so, I tweaked it and wrote it out for the Original and Big Caron Cakes.
But, as Jeanne reminded me, not everyone's head is the same size as mine 🙂 so I worked out the pattern for different sizes. In fact, I have included the changes you would need to make to the pattern for sizes ranging from Toddler to Adult Large!
Chunky or regular...for yourself or for a child...so many choices! And so many different colours from which to choose..betcha can't make just one!
I hope you enjoy this pattern as much as I did. Until you see me next time here on The Crochet Crowd, you can find me on Ravelry as The Crochet Ninja.

So good of you to share your passion, it leaps off the page, and your knowledge so that others can benefit. I now can make hats that fit the person it's intended for, that's huge in itself. I look forward to being a regular here and thank you for your generosity.

Do you have a video

Hi Abby, I don't have a video for the hat, but Mikey has a video tutorial for the Modern Granny blanket. The hat follows the same basics of alternating rows of 3dc clusters and sc. Here is the link for the video...just scroll down, the tutorial is near the bottom 🙂 http://thecrochetcrowd.com/crochet-modern-granny-afghan-pattern/
