Fur Pom-Pom Messy-bun Hat

Fur Pom-Pom Messy Bun HatThe latest trend in the crochet world are these Messy-bun hats. I enjoy them because they are perfect for those days that I just don’t want to put in a lot of effort into my hair but still need to wear a hat for the cold temperatures. Also trending right now are fur pom-poms, so I decided to combine the two and create this pretty and fun Messy-Bun Hat.

Materials:
– ½ skein Lionbrand Landscapes in Taupe, worsted weight yarn (MC).
– ½ skein Redheart Boutique Unforgettable in Tealberry, worsted weight yarn (CC).
– Fur Pom-Pom Hair Tie
– 2 Small Fur Pom-Poms
– Size I (5.5mm) Crochet Hook
Gauge: 4 sts x 3 rows = 1″ x 1″ over hdc
Difficulty:

    Thanks for the free pattern! In the picture it looks like there are 12 rows of the shell stitch, but the pattern states there are only 7.
