How to Crochet an Adorable Butterfly Hat

Crocheting an adorable butterfly hat is such a delightful and charming project to undertake! Not only does it enable you to showcase your creativity and crafting skills, but it also results in a whimsical and unique accessory that will surely stand out. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the crocheted butterflies add a touch of whimsy to the hat, making it perfect for adding a pop of fun to any outfit.

Using a J hook and worsted weight yarn, I used red heart, and it fits a 20 1/2 inch head very nicely. Very easily adjustable by either adding increase rows or taking away.
