Unicorn Bobble Drops Crochet Hat (Child) Free Pattern
Unicorn Bobble Drops Crochet Hat (Child) Pattern by Crochet For You.
If you remember the Bobble Drops Pompom Hat I shared earlier on the blog, I think you also remember the beautiful texture of the hat with scattered bobble drops. So I tried to make a bobble drops hat again, but this time with two colors. So here is my finished hat in child size.
For the two colors I used Caron Simply Soft Paints – Baby Brights (it’s a self-striping yarn) and the other one is a solid Caron Simply Soft White. As I worked with Caron Simply Soft Paints Baby Brights I remember unicorn color so the two combinations of the color and the stitch pattern I named this child hat Unicorn Bobble Drops Hat.
Caron Simply Soft Paints – baby Brights and white color gives the hat fun and colorful look that little one love to wear.

I found on row 16 I could not get 48 stitches, I believe is should be 44. It worked out for next row. On last row of hat I had to decrease every stitch to get 16 like pattern said. This was for the Unicorn Bobble Drops hat pattern. I loved the hat after I finished it.
