After making the purple slouch hat I wanted to make another one, but I wanted this one to be warm because it's cold in Michigan right now.
I have this pattern available for $3.00 in My Etsy Shop if anyone is interested.
and here is what it looks like if you just want a plain winter hat
What do you think?

thanks April, this is cute.
Ok grabbed my yarn, gonna do this in Red Hearts Dark Sage :)
April this is the first time Iv done this stitch, I really love it :) thanks for sharing it, when I am done I will show you :)
oooh I love Dark Sage. I think I will make my next hat that color :) I'm glad you learned a new stitch. I love FPdc and Bpdc. I use it a lot in the trim of most of my hats. I would have to say it is my favorite special stitch :)
Iv used it once before but awhile back, this is a real easy hat to make :)
I thought going into it man I dont know if I can do this .
LOL whats funny is I cant do a simple Granny square rofl
Ok I admit I am stuck. Iv ripped this out a couple times.
Ok on Rnd 4:
(ch 2, *(1 fpdc, 1 bpdc) do what is in parenthesis around same stitch, 1 fpdc, 1 bpdc* rep from * to * around (48) join with 1 ss)
Ok 1 fpdc, 1 bpdc in first stitch
ok here is where I am stuck.
1 fpdc in next stitch ,
then in next stitch do the bpdc?
yep that sounds right to me If you still don't get it send me a pic I might be able to catch the problem by looking at it
ok, thanks April :)
Let me know if you get confused again. I will find a way to help :)
Cute and cozy, I love it! I'll be linking.
hello there!
I stumbled on this through craftster and thought I'd give it ago.
for some reason I can not get the number of stitches to match yours (i've been doing this for hours).
round three and everything is fine but at the end of the fourth I end up with 44.
The only way I can get it to 48 is if I increase on every other stitch rather than first stitch out of every three. so like (fpdc,bpdc) fpdc then (fpdc,bpdc) bpdc.
I have no idea where I am going wrong =( xoxo
I am getting the same problem with ending up with 44? on fourth round?
lol goofed pic link up
Ok Im there to :( April Iv winged it does this look right?

Abby I got that exact way you did
Abby & Neicee: Put it aside for now. I Have company right now but later tonight/early tomorrow I will post pics of each step to help out:)
Renee: I can't see very well with the pic so just set it aside and I will post a clear tutorial either tonight or tomorrow. I have company right now.
Ok thanks april, I can e-mail the pics to you if you want
There is also a good possibility I counted wrong so I will find out when I do it again and take pics.
OH Thanks! I am so excited but the first few rows I need clarification on it. I just decided to add in the stitches that I missed to make it equal what pattern says and its just not right the ridges are not even. I am fb around bp and bp around fp making it look funky. Thanks D
ok I had a MAJOR error. I just corrected it. there is an extra (1 fpdc, 1 bpdc). That should fix it.
sorry everyone :(
wooohoo Gonna start over :) Thanks for the help April
it is in rnd 4 and 5 so you shouldn't have to undo all of it
rofl too late lol
April HELP I am stuc on row 3 I get 23 , Can you do to step 3 for me in a white so I can see where Im messing up at :(
do 1 fpdc and one bpdc around every stitch.
Tomorrow I will post instructions for rnds 1-5.
Thank you April, I shall give it ago right now! xoxo
yesyes, that works for me thank you so much April! have a day as beautiful as yourself =)
xoxo
Abby: Thanks! I am so glad you got it to work :)
Everyone: I have a sort of tutorial up now with pictures. I hope this helps.
Thank you April! I love my hat! I will make many more, I am sure!

April, love ur patterns. U have another winner here.
I'm glad everything works out now :) Thanks Everyone! Sorry I didn't reply sooner. For some reason some of my updates got sent to my spam folder. I am going to have to keep an eye out for that in the future.
how many rows did you add on to have the slouch effect?
Kaneesha: I don't understand your question. I posted the pattern.
im sorry for the confusion: if you exclude the "Note" after Round 5 will you end up with the slouch hat? If not, how many rows of the Note pattern do you need? I really hope this makes since now. Thanks
if you skip the note you will still end up with the slouch hat. The note just makes it bigger around. :)
i'd use the note if i wanted more hat. got it. thanks :))
yep ;) Glad you got it now :)Have fun.
what do you mean by 'TRIM'?
Trim is just to tell you that the next part is the Trim of the hat, The Band.
Hi April,
I saw this hat in Etsy, too bad the pattern is for sale. :(. Is it okay for you if I made one based on this hat? (As of now, I can't afford to buy the pattern.). You are a very good designer. Hope to hear from you soon.
