Wazzuuuup Crochet Crew?

Ever feel like cutting the grind out of your life and just wilding out as a pirate? Lemme tell ya: I catch that vibe more times than I can count. But if we’re taking notes from the OG Pirate King to be himself, we know that we can’t just step into that life without the proper style.

So here’s the deal: I got your back with my Straw Hat Amigurumi Crochet Pattern! Whether you’re a cat looking to cosplay or just trying to pimp one of your amigurumi by adding some additional swag, this right here’s the blueprint. It ain’t some major project – think of it more like a fresh lil’ accessory to elevate the whole fit of an amigurumi or a cat hat. One the plus side, that also makes it super easy and quick to make. In no time, you’ll be ready to hit those high seas and chase those treasures.

And no matter if you are still a crochet beginner or a pro’s pro already, you are gonna have this amigurumi or cat hat whipped up in a matter of minutes

By the way, I whipped this one up in a single go, without any frogging and was like: ‘Look at me. I am the crocheter now’😹

DISCLAIMER: please do NOT under any circumstances force this hat on your cat if they don’t like it! Animal welfare is top priority!

Before you get started

Yarn colors you will need

• Color for hat itself (something that resembles straw, so some beige or light shade of brownish)
• Red color

Important Information

Abbreviations used for Crochet Stitches

This pattern uses US crochet terms with the abbreviations below:

• MR = magic ring
• sc = single crochet
• inc = increase (2 single crochets in the same stitch)
• FLO = crochet into the front loop only

Adapting the size of the crochet hat

Depending on the size yarn you use and the eventual size of hat you are going for, you can very easily adapt. If you need your hat to be bigger than the one depicted, simply add more rounds evenly distributing 8 increases after round 5 until you reach a circumference that suits your needs. Then continue to do the number of single crochets for each round that equal the stitch count of your final round of increases. Also play with the number of rounds just doing single crochets around until it looks good (the plus with this pattern is, as there is no stuffing involved and also no decreases coming up later on, you can instantly see the actual shape it’s gonna end up with as you go).
