CHICKEN HAT PATTERN!!!!!


 
 
FINALLY!!! Here it is!!! The long awaited Free pattern!!! Sorry the pics aren't better, but I think you pretty well get the gist.  This hat was inspired by my chicken pals, I am probably a little chicken obsessed, but this is the most FUN free chicken hat pattern you will find.  I only did the one size, because as I have discovered no matter how many people want these hats for their babies, they never put them on those babies, but if you are a skilled crocheter, you know just leave a couple of increase rows off, and do a few rows less on everything. I still might go back and do this in a smaller size, I'll have to see what the evenings bring me here over the next few weeks.
Enjoy!!!
