HOLLY EMBELLISHMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
MATERIALS:
Worsted eight yarn
G (4.5 mm) crochet hook
Yarn needle
NOTES:
1. Read instructions all the way through before beginning.
2. Leaves and berries maybe worked with any size yarn or thread, just use the appropriate size hook for the yarn.
3. Leaf stitches are worked by inserting hook under two loops of the chain. When you work in the unused loop of chain there will only be a single loop. That’s why you work over the tail to make it match the first side.
SPECIAL STITCH:
Picot = Ch 3, slipstitch in 3rd ch from hook.
HOLLY LEAF (make 2)

Working in the unused loops of foundation ch and over the tail, repeat from * to *, sc in last ch, slipstitch in first sc.
Fasten off, leaving a 6 inch tail for sewing.
HOLLY BERRY (make 3)
Ch 2, 5 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Do Not join. Fasten off leaving about a 6 inch tail. Using your yarn needle, run the tail through the back loops of the sc sts, starting with the first sc. Pull tight to form berry. Tie a knot and use tail to sew the “berries” on item.

Oh, wow! I love this! I'll probably find the link again when I go to Crochetville - but this time I found it on Crochet Pattern Central's new patterns page - I check it twice a week. Thanks for the pattern.

Yoy over estimate my abilities, exactly how would I know? Maybe not following the instructions.
Go to Crochet Pattern Central and use the stitch directory to be sure you are making the correct stitches correctly.

I love this hat and so do the people I showed it to. I left the green leaves off.

I have made this hat twice and wanted to let you know that I love the pattern. I have left the leaves off. It is really quite nice!
Suzetta, the picture shows a hat with vertical ribs, directions are for horizontal ribs!! Love the hat but would like to learn how to do the one pictured!

The front posts form the vertical ribs. If you aren't getting that effect review the instructions on you tube for front posts.
This hat is beautiful! I love the holly too. I think I'll make a bunch of the holly embellishments to sew on my Christmas tree skirt. Thank you for sharing your talents.

I love this beautiful hat. I've made 37 so far and am donating them to the chemo patients at the local hospital. Its much nicer than the basic double crochet chemo cap. Thank you so much for sharing.

My head is smaller than most...I can wear a kids hat..so, I'm hoping to make it a bit smaller. I really like the white one and pray it comes out as planned! thank you so much for this pattern.
My head size is smaller than most so it is nice to start with a good pattern. Thank you so much..I love your white one..pray I can make it fit!
Suzetta, Overall I find this pattern to be pretty easy. Though when I got to [Rounds 6-14 average only: Ch 3, does count as first st, *fpdc around next st, /_dc in next st_\, repeat from * around. Join with a slipstitch in top of ch 3. (60 sts)], I found that it wasn't looking how it showed in the photos. Did you do the fpdc then a bpdc? Or am I mistaken??

I am making this hat for about the fourth time and the people I have given it to love the hat. I also took the pattern and turned it upside down and added a handle to it to make a purse for my great-granddaughter. She loved this.

If you make the hat, turn it upside down and add a crocheted handle you will have a purse to go with the hat. I did this for my great-granddaughter. She loved having her own purse to match her hat.
