A witch hat with crochet trim adds a touch of elegance and charm to this classic Halloween accessory. The crochet trim, often made with intricate patterns and delicate stitches, adds a unique and stylish element to the hat, setting it apart from a typical witch hat. The addition of crochet trim not only enhances the visual appeal but also adds texture and depth to the overall design.

The use of crochet trim allows for endless customization options, allowing individuals to create a witch hat that suits their personal style and preferences. Whether it's a vibrant and colorful trim or a more subdued and monochrome design, the crochet trim adds an extra layer of creativity and personality to the hat.

Too Early for Halloween? Make the Witch Hats Crochet Earrings

Hello! If you watch my Facebook Live videos you know that I’m so excited for Halloween. It is my favorite time of the year for a lot of reason, including decorations, food, and that the weather changes (in most places) to get a bit chillier.
Originally this week was supposed to feature the Sally Skull Earrings as the new free pattern but the pair of earrings I worked up didn’t photograph too well… my use of black thread for the skull make them hard to read. So I’m re-doing them and I’ll get ’em published next week. I didn’t have time this last weekend because my hubs and I decided on a quick trip out of town before he has to go back to work.
Anyway, I hope you like the Witch Hat coaster and earring set that I’ve got here for you. They’re fun and quick, combining my favorite things into one blog post: tapestry crochet, thread, jewelry, and Halloween!

Materials:

  • 2.25 mm crochet hook
  • Size 10 crochet thread
    • I used Aunt Lydia‘s
    • less than an oz, 3 colors
    • I just used random cotton yarn

    Gauge:

    • G: 4.5” x 4.5” = 19 dcs x 9 rows
    • 2.25 mm: 1″ x 1″ = 10 scs x 10 rows

    Terms/ stitches:

    • RS: right side
    • Ch: chain
    • St: stitch
    • Slip st: slip stitch
    • Sc: single crochet
    • Sc2tog: single crochet 2 stitches together

    Notes:

    • Both patterns are worked back and forth in rows, with a turn at the end/ beginning.
    • The ch 1 at the beginning of the row does not count as a stitch in either pattern.
    • Both patterns are worked from the bottom up.
    • Coaster: the sides portion (where the color changes are) will only tell you what color (ie: Color A, Color B, etc…) and the number in the parentheses tells you how many single crochets to make.
    • Coaster: In the example, the inactive yarn is carried behind the active. If this is confusing, you might want to check out this helpful Moogly video on tapestry .
    • You can replace the chain row with a foundation single crochet row.
    • Coaster: color A is tan, color B is black, and color C is pink.
    • Earrings: color A is black and color B is orange.
    • You’re going to need to know how to create a slipknot on your hook.

    Reviews for "Stepping up your witch hat game: crochet trim inspiration from fashion icons"

    - Emily - 2 out of 5 stars - I was really excited to receive this witch hat with crochet trim but was very disappointed when it arrived. The crochet trim was unraveling in several places and looked very messy. Additionally, the hat itself was not very sturdy and kept collapsing on itself. Overall, I had high hopes for this hat but it just didn't live up to my expectations.
    - John - 1 out of 5 stars - I have to say, I am extremely disappointed with the witch hat with crochet trim that I ordered. The crochet trim was not securely attached to the hat and started coming off within minutes of wearing it. The hat itself was also too small for my head and kept slipping off. It was definitely not worth the price that I paid for it.
    - Sarah - 2 out of 5 stars - I bought this witch hat with crochet trim for a costume party and was not happy with the quality. The crochet trim was uneven in places and looked very amateurish. The hat itself was also very flimsy and didn't hold its shape well. I had to constantly readjust it throughout the night. I would not recommend this hat to others.
