What a wonderful day! I enjoyed a lunch date with my wonderful husband, then came home to snuggle with our son on my lap to watch a great movie, Cars. Meanwhile, I finished a quick hat for myself. Ever since I made the cream-colored cloche for my sister-in-law Heather, I've wanted one! That soft white yarn matches a scarf & coat I wear on slightly warmer winter days.
This hat has a delicate, feminine pattern and feels lightweight (if you don't want to squish your hair), while keeping your head warm.

Classy Cloche Hat Pattern to Crochet
http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/5938566/classy_cloche_hat_pattern_to_crochet.html?cat=24
This simple cloche has no brim and fits snugly to the head. The pattern is worked with two stitches in one space which makes the hat a bit thicker and warmer without being clunky.
Skill Level: Easy
Materials Needed:
Approx 2 oz worsted weight yarn
Size K crochet hook
Large needle to weave in ends
Abbreviations Used:
Ch = chain
Sp = space
St = stitch
SC = single crochet
DC = double crochet
SS = slip stitch
Round 1: Ch 4 (will count as 1st DC), work 11 DC into first ch (total 12 DC)
Round 2: Ch 2 (counts as 1st DC at start of each round), DC in same sp, 2 DC each st around, join with SS (total 24 DC)
Round 3: Ch 2, DC same sp, DC next sp, * 2 DC next sp, DC next sp, repeat from * to end, join with SS (total 36 DC)
Round 4: Ch 2, DC same sp, DC next 3 st, * 2 DC next sp, DC next 3 st, repeat from * to end, join with SS (total 45 DC)
Round 5: Ch 2, DC same sp, DC next 4 st, * 2 DC next sp, DC next 4 st, repeat from * to end, join with SS (total 54 DC)
Round 6: Ch 1, DC same sp, skip 1, * SC and DC in next st, skip 1, repeat from * to end, join with SS
Round 7 (pattern row): Ch 1, turn, DC in same sp, skip 1, * SC and DC in next st, skip 1, repeat from * to end, join with SS
Repeat pattern row, turning at end of each row, until piece measures 6.5-7" (approx 10 pattern rows) from top to bottom or desired length. Finish with SC border, bind off, weave in ends.
Variations:
Make a striped band by doing two rows in a contrasting color several rows before finishing, then pick up the main color again to complete the hat, or do the last few rows in the contrasting color as trim.
Add a crocheted flower, coordinating button, clip earring or brooch for a classy, vintage look.
