This pattern is on the Red Heart website. Directions are the same.

There is something seriously wrong with this pattern, I thought I was going insane now I see the comments and know it's not ME YAY!!!

Not happy with the pattern.

Not really happy with this pattern. It has some major flaws.

I agree with previous comments...something is wrong with this pattern. Please could it be looked into? Still keen to give it a try if a correction can be made. Thanks....

Love the pattern, but I'm stuck on row 3. After the first CL and ch 2; instructions say to dc in next 2 dc. Do you skip the next dc and go on to the ch 2 spc? Can any one help? I have ripped out stiches several times.

There is a problem with row 5 of the hat. Could someone please check.
