Do you have pattern for hat?

I love it...Do you have the pattern for the hat?

I would like to crochet the hat too, if any one knows where I can find it. In the meantime I shall check on the post that Wendall Oct 03 2010, 2 posts,below recommends.

What does it mean in the instructions when it says "Pat i sc"? Actually what does Pat mean? Thanks.

There is a hat pattern very similar on the Patons website called Melody Funkytown and it's free. Try it.

What does it mean in the instructions when it says "Pat i sc"? Thanks.

pat=pattern. i.e. for the back, front loop in one sc and back loop in the next then repeat.

Could you post the pattern for the hat? Thanks - Loretta

Cute outfit, Would like the hat patttern. My daughter loves that style hat best.

Seems like we all are in agreement. We love the whole look so ya we need the hat pattern too PLEASE

I agree with LaceAngel- do you have the hat pattern?
