Crochet Moose Hat

November 13, 2019

I thought it was time for another hat pattern! This moose is so cute for kids and adults so I am giving you pattern sizes for all ages! Pair it with a buffalo check (plaid) scarf and you have the perfect Fall/Winter ensemble! It would make an adorable gift this holiday season!

My son Chase is modeling the hat for me this time! I think he’s totally rockin this hat! And look how well the Antlers stay up! Watch my video tutorial below to see how I got them to stay up and not flop over.


Materials:
– Bernat Super Value Yarn in two shades of brown. I suggest Topaz and Taupe (dark brown). or Taupe and Oatmeal (lighter brown antlers). You will need a bit of white for the eyes.
Shop yarn colors HERE on Yarnspritions.com

– Size H Crochet Hook
– Two small black buttons
– Poly-fil Fiber Stuffing for the antlers
– Tapestry Needle

With main hat color, attach yarn and SC around the entire bottom edge of the hat (including earflaps). Fasten off and weave in ends.

Braided Tails: Cut 6 long strands of the same color yarn you used for the antlers. Pull yarn halfway through last loop of the earflaps (you now have 18 strands). Knot, braid, and knot again at the end of your braid. Trim ends of braided tails so yarn is even. Do this for both earflaps.

Chain 17, SC in second chain from hook and the rest of the way down chain, chain 1, turn
Row 2-3: SC in each stitch across, chain 1, turn
Row 4: SC in first 4 stitches (leave remaining stitches unworked for now), chain 1, turn, SC in 4 stitches, chain 1, turn, SC in 4 stitches, chain 1, turn, SC in 4 stitches and continue to SC down side of first antler pieces until you get back to your main row, SC in 4 stitches of your main row, chain 1, turn
Second and Third Antler: *SC in first 3 stitches (leaving last stitch unworked – its the space between the antlers), chain 1, turn, SC in 3, chain 1, turn, SC in 3, chain 1, turn, SC in 3 and SC down side of second antler piece until you get to the main row. SC in 4 stitches along main row and repeat from * to make the third antler.
When you get back to your main row, SC in last 4 stitches. Fasten off.

Place two antler pieces together and SC edges together. Stuff lightly with poly-fil as you go. Leave end open to stitch onto hat.

Feeling Confused? Don’t worry! I made a video tutorial on how to make the Antler Pieces and sew them onto the hat!

Snout:
Chain 12, DC in 3rd chain from hook and the rest of the way down chain. Make a total of 3 DC in last stitch. Now working on other side of chain, DC in each stitch and make 3 DC in last stitch. Join to first DC, chain 2.
Round 2: (2 DC in first stitch, DC in next stitch)-do that 4 times, 2 DC in next 3 stitches, (2 DC in first stitch, DC in next stitch)- do that 4 times, 2 DC in last 4 stitches. Join to first DC. (38 DC)
Stitch on two little nostrils with contrasting yarn.

Chain 6, TC in 3rd chain from hook, DC in next two, SC in last, chain 1, turn
