Crochet Bobble Drops Pompom Hat Free Pattern
Crochet Bobble Drops Pompom Hat Pattern by Crochet For You
I really love how this Bobble Drops Pompom Hat turned out. Especially these scattered front post bobbles on this hat here and there. It is a lovely and simple texture pop up on the hat lastly when you finished. And this Sunshine color of Caron Simply Soft perfectly matches for the fall season. But I think you can use other beautiful colors of Caron Simply Soft and crochet more hats with your favorite colors. See other color options here, select the color you like and crochet your own hat.

That is a beautiful hat. Thank you so much or the pattern!
Kristin
Can this be left open at the top and used as a messy bun hat? I absolutely love this hat and while I’m not very good at working from patterns, I’m going to give this one a try!
Mandy Taylor
excellent pattern, well written and easy to follow. thanks so much
Amy
Are these bobble stitches going around the post of the double crochet from the previous row?
Theresa Myers
I am confused with round 5. The pattern says to ch 1, sc in first st and next st, and then the repeat pattern. If you follow that you don’t get the right amount of bobbles and you are left with 4 stitches at the end rather than 3. It seems like doing 1 sc after the ch 1 makes the math work. Can someone confirm this?
Erangi Udeshika
Hi Theresa, did you get 72 stitches total in previous round? Or you have surely crocheted a sc in same st that you crocheted bobble.
Kelly
Hello there, I am loving this pattern but new to trying new stitches. My bobble doesn’t look like the ones in your picture, just a regular bobble instead of your cone looking ones. Do you have a video of you doing them? I’ve tried to YouTube it but I feel like yours is special. Bare with me I’m a converted knitter. Lol thanks so much!
Kelly
I apologize, I found what a fp bobble should be done like. Thanks!!
