Forked Cluster Hat
Design by Sarah Ruane from Ned and Mimi.

The Forked Cluster Hat is an easy crochet hat pattern, worked in the round from the top down. For this hat you will need any #4/Medium/Worsted weight yarn in one or two colors. I decided to work my ribbing in a contrasting color but you can absolutely use one color for the entire hat if you wish!
The pattern is written for 5 sizes – Baby, Toddler, Child, Adult Small and Adult Large – so this is a great pattern to make in bulk for gifts.
The hat ribbing is added using the “join-as-you-go” technique which means minimal seaming 🙂 For the body of the hat, you use the larger hook size; for the ribbing, you will go down to the smaller hook for a nice, snug fit.
