Crochet cloche hat

A hat makes a woman so graceful and so sophisticated. The cloche hat does this especially well. Just look how charming she looks in a romantic look.

photo_1This is a still from a movie and Angelina Jolie wouldn't look so feminine without a hat. The image of such a French woman was very successful thanks to the hat. What happened to cloche hats today? They have multiplied both qualitatively and quantitatively. So many luxurious models, a lot of fancy materials. Of these, not the least place belongs to knitted models. Let's try to make a luxurious product from yarn and crochet. Very nice models with diagrams and explanations later in the article.

Preparatory steps for knitting a cloche hat

taking measurements from the headFor cloche hats, threads that contain little wool are suitable (so that the product is not prickly). The pile can be soft and smooth. Products made from mohair look great. Fantasy yarn will sparkle in a new way in this headdress. But most often children's varieties of yarn are used. The hook is selected after the threads and according to the thickness of the thread.

For a hat, just like for a regular hat, you will need only two measurements, and right now a few words about how to take measurements.

  • The first measurement is head circumference. The measuring tape passes along the eyebrow arches and goes to the occipital protuberances. Additionally, 2 cm is subtracted from the value.
  • The second measurement is the depth of the product. From the lobe of one ear to the top of the head and to the lobe of the second ear. Divide the resulting number by 2 and add cm, depending on the model of the headdress. For cloches this is 3 cm and plus the brim of the hat (from 5 cm).

Description of knitting a cloche hat

A crocheted cloche headdress is crocheted with dense patterns if it is a model for the cold season. In this case, a pattern of simple single crochets behaves very beautifully, and there is no denser pattern than this pattern.

scheme_1This hat is a clear confirmation of this. The product is knitted from top to bottom. You can use an amigurumi loop at the very beginning. Make an increase according to the pattern until the top of the head is knitted, then repeat the rows until the depth of the cap is knitted. Insert contrasting thread in three rows, near the brim of the cap. In order for the fields to be flared, make additions in several places along all rows of fields. To get the bend characteristic of the model, make bright decreases in the last row (you can decrease 5 or more loops at once).

scheme_2Very cute stripes. This sloppy pattern makes the hat very unusual. In fact, these different sized lines are a game of stitches (single crochets and stitches with one crochet or more are used). The technique of knitting behind the front and back walls of the previous row helps to clearly emphasize each line. A spectacular flower with long leaves is the final touch of a worthy product.

scheme_3The feminine model will complement the coat and fur coat. The headdress begins from the top of the head.An interesting technique for single crochet stitches, but for greater charm, two contrasting yarns are used, resulting in such a colorful game. Then a plain belt made of single crochets (for a greater difference in boundaries, this element is knitted into one thread). And then there are fields of cloche and again two colorful threads. The product ends with contrasting purple yarn and it is also double thread and single crochet. The final touch is a flower with large petals along the edge of the cap.
