How to Crochet a Shell Stitch Hat Pattern Tutorial





I made this crochet shell hat for my toddler. The 6 petal-layered flowers can be fastened on and off from the button so she can wear different colored flowers on her hat. I'll show you how to make a beginner-friendly layered crochet flower. This flower is easy to make and can be customized to suit your needs.

  3. I would like to make this pattern for my daughter and her two girls. However the instructions shown are only for 12mos-3yrs. Where can I find instructions for those sizes? Thank you.

  4. see the box above with a list of hook sizes for different ages, so if its for an adult then check the box above which is a J hook and follow the pattern the same way and then check what age for your child which maybe a H hook.
