Missing the hat! Dang it!

See this hat? Man, that is a cool hat, isn't it? I so want to make that hat. By the way, I live in Texas, and I used to live in Nashville, and I plan to return to Nashville. So the hat fits, y'all....... I wanna make that hat!

Look! See? It's on the back of this magazine. The Crochet Collection. From the UK. And yes, I bought the magazine. And all those other patterns on the back of that magazine? They're in the magazine. But the hat's not. Now, y'all............ come on! Seriously. I wanna make that hat.


I did think, well, maybe the picture is about the collar trim on the top. That would be a total bummer, you know, to tease me that way.......... but you know what? The collar trim? Not in the book either. I have looked through this book. A lot.


I wrote the editor of this book. Sent her (him?) an e-mail. I've gotten no response. ...sigh....


Look, y'all, it's not a big thing. I wanna make that hat. I seriously do. I will pay for that pattern, of course I will.......... but I cannot find it. I have searched, I have googled. Found some crocheted cowboy hats. But not that one, and not not even another one that would do. The others were (sorry if y'all have made them, or designed them....) well, I was gonna say ugly, but they weren't really ugly. Just they weren't really cool. They weren't hats I wanted to make is all.


Can anybody help me? Do y'all know where I can get the pattern for that hat? Or another cool cowboy hat? If you do, could you leave the the link, or something?


Y'all have an awesome day.

I can see why you would want to make it, it's really cool. I'm going to have to see if I can find me a copy of that book. It looks like it's got a lot of cool things in it. Things I would like to make too.

I hope you find the pattern. Maybe you will hear back soon from the publisher.

I haven't seen this book or pattern but if I do, I'll let you know. I want to ask about the beautiful afghan (quilt?) in the lower right hand corner of your header. Is this a quilt or crochet? It is beautiful. Pattern?

Charlotte, that is neither. It is a plastic canvas wall hanging. It's patterned after a quilt, though, a star pattern. You could, if you wanted to, make an afghan or crocheted blanket like that too, though I'm betting it would take some time. Lots of little diamonds....

That is a fun hat! Hmmm have you tried checking crochet pattern central?
