His and Hers Crochet Football Beanie

Materials needed:

Red Heart Super Saver Coffee

Red Heart Super Saver White

Yarn Needle 

Scissors

Football Button

Hook H 5.0 mens hat

     The best part about this beanie is, that you do not have to use the brown and white yarn.  You could always color cooridnate it to match your favorite teams.

      I made two hats with this pattern.  The men's hat I used the H hook and the womans hat I made ear flaps and a flower with a football button.

This is where I stopped for the men's hat.  

Ear flaps

Lay the hat flat with the seam facing you.  I counted 8 stitches to the left and 8 stitches to the right and placed stitch markers. So you have 16 stitches from stitch marker to stitch marker.
Row 1: In the st. after the stitch marker double crochet it the next 14 stitches [14]
Row2 : Turn your work ch1 skip the fist stitch and dc in the next 12 stitches. [12] The first and last stitch should be unworked.  
Row 3 : Turn your work ch1 skip the first stitch and dc in the next 10 stitches [10] The first and last stitch should be unworked.
Row 4, 5 & 6 keep decreasing until you are left with 4 stitches.

Repeat for the other side. 

After the ear flaps are done. I single crocheted in each stitch completely around.  This made the ear flaps look more rounded.   When working the sides of the ear flaps, I placed the stitches wherever they fit.  

Flower

Rnd 1: Magic ring with 12 hdc , sc to beginning st to complete circle close circle.
Rnd 2: sc1, *ch3, skip 1 sc and sc in the next stitch* repeat 5 more times
You will have 6 ch3 around the flower.
*Sc to the first loop, dc 5 times sc* repeat in the next 5 loops.
Sc to the last loop to finish it off.  Tie of and leave a tail for sewing

Rnd 1: Magic ring with 12 dc , sc to beginning st to complete circle close circle.
Rnd 2: sc1, *ch3, skip 1 sc and sc in the next stitch* repeat 5 more times

I then sewed both flowers together and then sewd them onto the hat.  I put a button in the middle of the smaller flower

You will need to print the graph out so that you can mark off your rows and keep track of your progress easier.

I made this graph using Stitch Fiddle.  It is a free online program where you can design your own graphs.www.stitchfiddle.com

These are the links that I used for the leaves:

How to Crochet a Maple leaf by The Crochet Crowd https://youtu.be/XtDTioi99uM

Small Maple Leaf by Yolanda Soto Lopez https://youtu.be/3sK9a6mDy9A

I made this graph using the corner to corner stitch.

I started in the bottom left corner to crochet the graph.  You can find many tutorials on youtube to learn how to crochet C2C or corner to corner.

For the border I did a single chain all the way around.  Then I followed it by a double crochet in the Red Heart Super Saver Mushroom.  The 3rd row I did half double crochet in the Red Heart Oatmeal Color and for the 4th row I did another row of double crochet in the Red Heart Super Saver Mushroom.

The Vine.  I made several strands.  I would single chain so many then I would slip stitch back to the beginning and leave a tail for sewing.  

How you make your leaves and vine is up to you.  This is really a designers choice.  

Sewing:

When you sew the leaves and vines onto the  table only go thru the top part of the stitch.  This does take more time.   I sewed on vines and leaves for about 9 hours but the back of my table runner has no stitches showing thru...
