This is a great little crochet make for on the go. It is a messy bun hat with a hole in the top. I have made it for Little M's best friend for her birthday. She sports a brilliant messy bun all the time. I have a feeling I might have to make another couple of these and master my own version of a messy bun!
The wool is just a ball of acrylic aran worked on a 4.5 hook from this pattern. There is a video to go with it if you are a beginner.
At the end of every other row you make a stitch in a hair band. You can add a button or a flower or a bow. I made a freeform flower which I was pleased with.
Thanks for dropping in, I feel a bit like I am dropping in on my own blog at the moment! Busy, Busy... Jo xx
I love a messy bun my 24 year old daughter sports one most days :-)
