Assembling the Hat
- Joining the Squares: The six kiwi granny squares are then joined together using a single crochet stitch to form the main body of the hat.
- Crocheting the Top: A separate piece is crocheted in a circular pattern to form the top of the hat. This piece is then crocheted to the main body of the hat.
- Creating the Brim: The final step is to crochet the brim of the hat. This part of the tutorial uses different colored yarns, including white, yellow, and brown, to create a striped effect. The brim is finished with a slip stitch for added sturdiness.
