The crochet Puffs Hat has a spiral design of puff stitches and is accented with special pom pom ties. Keep reading for the free crochet pattern.
When I made my Puffs Mod Scarf-I mentioned that I had to borrow from another skein to make the tassels- so of course I had to use that skein to make a matching hat! The Spiral Puffs Slouchy is a stylish and modern bonnet-style slouchy hat that you can embellish with pom poms or tassels. The puffs work up in an interesting spiral pattern giving the hat a little bit of extra texture. And because it's made with Scarfie yarn, you know it will be so warm and squishy!
