Rose Beanie Crochet Hat

I had a request for the Rose Beanie in Adult size so here it is.  My husband and daughter are on a dental mission trip this week in Guyana so I have had a little time to catch up on things and finish up a few projects.  This hat was made with Cascade Yarns 220 Superwash Wool, but any worsted weight yarn will work.

For this you will need the following:
Cascade Yarns 220 Super Wash wool in color number 862 (brown)
Size J or 6mm hook
yarn needle
Size L or 8mm hook
CL = Cluster stitch
Beg CL = Beginning Cluster stitch

To start make a magic loop with your J hook, or chain 4 loop and chain 1.
Round 1:  make 12 HDC in the loop, sl st to the top of the first stitch.
Round 2:  ch 1, do *2 HDC in each stitch around, sl st to the top of the first st.  (24 HDC)
Round 3:  ch 1, do *2 HDC in the first st, 1 HDC in the next st, repeat around, sl st to the top of the first st. (36 HDC)
Round 4:  ch 1, do *2 HDC in the first st, 1 HDC in the next 2 sts, repeat around, sl st to the top of the first st. (48 HDC)
Round 5:  ch 1, do *2 HDC in the first st, 1 HDC in the next 5 sts, repeat around, sl st to the top of the first st.  (56 HDC)
Round 6:  ch 1, do *2 HDC in the first st, 1 HDC in the next 7 sts, repeat around, sl st to the top of the first st.  (64 HDC)
Rounds 7-16:  ch 2, make the Beg CL in the same st, ch 1, *sk the next st, CL in the next st ch 1, repeat from * (32 Clusters) sl st to the top of the first CL and sl st to the ch 1 space.  Clusters in rows 8-16 will be worked in the ch 1 space between the clusters of the previous row.

The beginning cluster (beg cl) stitch is made by ch 2, yo, insert hook in the designated st, yo, pull loop through, yo, pull through 2 loops on hook, yo, insert hook in same st, yo, pull loop through, yo, pull through 2 loops on hook, yo, pull through all 3 loops on hook.

Cluster Stitches (cl) are Yo, insert hook in designated st, yo, pull lp through, yo, pull through 2 loops on hook, [yo, insert hook in same st, yo, pull loop through, yo, pull through 2 loops on hook]twice, yo, pull through all 4 loops on hook. 

Rounds 17-20:  ch 1, SC in each st around (64 SC) sl st to the top of the first st. 
After round 20 tie off and weave in all ends.  


Flower:  with your L hook, chain 4 and make a loop.
Round 1:  ch 1 and SC in the loop, ch 3, SC in the loop, ch 3 SC in the loop, ch 3 and sl st to the first SC. 
Round 2:  sl st in the first ch 3 space then do *1HDC, 3DC, 1HDC, Slip stitch in each chain 3 loop.  
Round 3:  you will be working on the backside for this round and making the foundation for the next round of petals.  SC around the post of the first petal and ch 3,  SC between the 2 & 3 DC in the first petal from round 2, ch 3, SC between the HDC and 1st DC in the next petal, ch 3, SC between the HDC and sl st on the same petal, ch 3, SC between the 2 & 3 DC in the last petal, ch 3 and sl st in the SC on the post.  
Round 4:  in each ch 3 space do, 1 sl st, 1 HDC, 4DC, 1 HDC, 1 sl st.  For a total of 5 petals.
