Pebble Hat

"This easy crochet hat pattern uses a simple cluster stitch to create lots of lovely texture without making the pattern complicated. The result is a cosy, slightly slouchy hat that looks much more intricate than it actually is. It’s a great project to pick up when you want a quick make, whether you’re crocheting one for yourself, making a handmade gift or adding a little extra warmth to someone else’s winter wardrobe. This pattern was also part of a Crochet For Charity blog hop, which was all about using our love of crochet to make something that can brighten someone else's day. There are so many people who could benefit from a warm, handmade hat, and crochet is such a lovely way to turn a little time, yarn and creativity into something genuinely useful. Whether you choose to donate your finished hat to a local charity, community organisation, shelter or another cause close to your heart, I hope this pattern inspires you to make one — or perhaps a few!"
