Sherlock Holmes Crochet Hat
If it is Father's Day or your brother's birthday and you want to gift him something different this time, then the idea of making a crochet hat, just like one that Sherlock Holmes used to wear, seems to be quite impressive. Making the hat requires some basic stitches, such as chain stitch, slipstitch, single crochet and double crochet. The gauge of the crochet should be such that 1 inch by 1 inch of crocheted square should have 4 single crochet rows, each row having 4 single crochets. This gift, when made by your own hands, will certainly be admired by your loved ones. Below, we have detailed the method of preparing Sherlock Holmes crochet hat. Make sure to follow each and every step given below.
