Seashore Messy Bun Hat
"There have been so many messy bun hats taking the world by storm. I made a conscious decision to make several designs to represent different levels of creators as well as different styles for different outfits. We all have different reasons we choose specific crochet patterns so I am doing my absolute best to cover all the bases. This lovely hat is super fast and really quite easy to work up. Shells may appear to be a difficult stitch, but really they are so simple! You must give this one a try. You can even decrease 2 more rows and cinch it together to make a beanie!"

My favorite thing about this hat is that its not messy at all. The design looks well-finished and professional. I really like the use of the back bump (and including a video tutorial, too) to give the raised row detail. Ive used that one several hats Ive created and they always turn out well. I tend to shy away from bottom up hats, but since this ends with a hole rather than a completed top, it might not be too bad.
