Crochet chunky bun hat



I had so much fun making these hats yesterday and today, well not hahaha kinda fun, but it was relaxing. But then it came time to take pictures, and since I don't have another humans head to borrow, I have to be the one in the pics. That's normally fine but lately it's getting harder and harder  to get a decent pic, I look so old and tired.
I used to be young and shiny, I swear 2016 aged me by like 5 years, well that and the drinking.
At least the hats are gorgeous, and I'm gonna wear one out tonight, yup that's right, yours truly is actually going out. Me and Ryan are having some post dinner drinks with some friends, but since it's dry January I guess we'll be going out for some o'douls, sigh. So while I'm being forced to socialize while sober, you can make up some pretty hats too with this free pattern.
See I look like I'm 1000


Supplies
8mm hook
Bernat chunky yarn(about a third of a 300g skein)


CH 7
Slst into the second CH and in each across(6slst)
Turn your work and slst into each slst(6slst)
Continue slst back and forth until the band is the size of your head(mine was 21in)
Slst one end of the band to the other through all 6 slst one at a time, do not tie off
Slst across the entire top of the band loosely, tie off.
Band is done
For the main body
Row 1. CH 2 and DC into each slst around, connect with slst to top of CH 2
Row 2. CH 1 and SC around, connect with slst
Row 3. Same as row 1
Row 4. Same as row 2
Row 6. CH 2, DC into first 2 stitches, 1 DC decrease into next stitch, repeat around, slst to join
Row 7. Same as row 6
Row 8. CH 1, slst tightly around and join

I hope this pattern makes sense, if you have questions let me know.

Crochet pussy hat

Wow, I can't believe I've managed to get anything done in the last few days. After experiencing a major depressive meltdown, panic attacks and developing a cold, I've been pretty much out of comish. But I somehow managed to create an extremely simple pattern for a pussy hat. So far I've had one order for plain pink, two for pink and red, one for black and grey and one pure black. I'm still not functioning quite yet, and I'm drinking too much. Being crazy is hard when you're still sane enough to know you're crazy. I honestly can't believe I survived this as a child, it's a living hell. I'm very lucky to have my hilarious family and husband. Yeah somebody actually married this crazy bitch. I wouldn't get through this without vulgar humour constantly being thrown at me. So this is one thing I still managed to do, and like all my patterns, it's deceptively simple. Pattern You will need 8mm crochet hook ...

Crochet Chunky Men's Hat

About a month ago I made myself and my husband matching hats, I got some new Bernat Chunky yarn and wanted to play with it because I'm a giant dork. So hats it was, we needed some anyways. It doesn't get as cold here as most of the rest of Canada, maybe -8 c at the absolute lowest and only at night, still nice to have winter hats though. Well my husband(Ryan) is obsessed with his, he never takes it off. It's already worn down and looks a million years old because he wears it at work all day. But in all fairness, he looks a million years old to so..... The originals  Today Ryan came home and said his boss has been bugging him for a hat like his, and since I'm FUCKING AMAZING I obliged. I wanted to return some of the blue softee chunky yarn I had bought the day before anyways because it turns out I hate it, oops. So I went and exchanged it for grey(the only good mens colour they had) and got straight to work. I absolutely love this hat, it only takes abou...

Mental illness makes everything harder

    Ryan is gone. Well, only for two weeks but I've never been away from him for that long, and he's so far away. I know it sounds silly and dramatic but I feel like my heart is broken right now. I can't help how I feel and I'd much rather not feel this way, but it just came on suddenly and I'm having to deal with it. It feels just like heartbreak, I can't stop crying or vomiting, I'm Just in a ball on the floor. I feel like I'm dying, it's very uncomfortable and awful feeling.      I chose to stay with my mom while he's gone, but now I just want to go home. I want him to turn around and come take me home and stay with me. I don't know why I feel like this, I'm aware that it's irrational but I still feel it. Oh the joys of mental illness, it makes everything so much harder. I know a normal person would be a bit sad, but they wouldn't feel this level of raw emotion over something so small. I wish I could sleep, I'm so tired. ...
