Break yarn leaving a 40cm end, thread end onto a wool sewing needle
Thread end through remaining stitches and pull tight. 
Thread through stitches again and pull tight again. 
Use the remainder of the yarn to sew together the side seam with mattress stitch. 
Weave in ends and trim.


Brim
Join contrast colour yarn with a slip stitch to the base of the hat.

Foundation round: 60 dc around edge, join with a slip stitch. Break yarn and change colour.

Shell round:  Join yarn with a slip stitch to any stitch. 3 chains, work 2 trebles, chain 1, 3 trebles all into the first stitch of the foundation row, miss three stitches from the foundation row and (3 trebles, 1 chain, 3 trebles) into the next stitch. (3 trebles, 1 chain, 3 trebles) are from now on called the "shell"
  Miss 3 stitches and shell into next stitch, continue all the way around, join with a slip stitch to the third chain. There are fifteen shells in my round.
Break yarn and change colour.

Shell round two: Join yarn with a slip stitch to the center of any shell. 3 chains, work 3 trebles, chain 1, 4 trebles all into the first shell,  (4 trebles, 1 chain, 4 trebles) into the next shell,  continue all the way around, join with a slip stitch to the third chain. 
Break yarn and weave in ends.

As with all my patterns...
It's ok to share these patterns for free
It's ok to make things from these patterns to sell
It's not OK to sell my patterns
It's not OK to claim my work is yours.
