In addition to trying front loop crochet stitches for the brim, maybe a few evenly spaced decreases.

ReNae, that dress and hat sound really neat!  The cat hats sound fun, too.

If you do a couple rows of front loops only crochet, does it curl?

I designed a beautiful Princess dress and hat for my granddaughter’s Minnie Mouse doll.  It is crocheted with Baby Bee yarn, called Bubble Gum.  It is white with flecks of pink, yellow and blue.  I had to design this dress to fit over a dress that is not removable from the doll.  She also has large ears and a big bow on top of her head, that also cannot be removed.  I designed a hat, with a hole in the top, but hugs to the bow and ears, so her doll could have a hat.  My granddaughter loves it!  She wore an outfit that she said is like Minnie’s, to school today.  She wanted to look like a princess, as Minnie is.  LOL

I am now working on hats with a kitty cat face and ears on them.  They will be for both granddaughters and my daughter-in-law.  I wanted to make a hat with a curled brim, but I don’t know how to do that crochet stitch.  I don’t even know what it is called to find a pattern.  Does anyone know what that is called, when there is a small curl or roll, at the brim of the hat?  There is no set brim, but this cur/roll makes a tiny brim.

Hi Tracy and Everyone, this week I have still been hard at work on my scarf and hat combination that is in honor of my Father, Grandfather and all Service men and women who were or are in the U S Army.

Also, here is an announcement, starting tomorrow (Sunday May 10th) I will be starting “What are You Working On This Week?”

It’s Successful Saturday!  Have you started or finished a project or achieved a goal?  Share it with us and we’ll celebrate with you.

I think our group has achieved a success.  All week, people have been coming up with good ideas for how we can strengthen our group and move forward.  So, everybody, pat yourself on the back.  Good job!  And, if you have more ideas, keep them coming.

Tracy
