How to Crochet a Floral Granny Square Bucket Hat or Sun Hat

Designed by the talented crochet bag lady of the day, this cute hat is made from granny squares. You only need to crochet four of them to get the floral top of the hat.
Once you have the squares, they will be joined with zig-zag stitching. Despite its intricate appearance, according to the author, it's quite simple to complete.
Before you begin, there are a few things you need to know. Firstly, you'll need yarn for the head. A type of craft yarn is recommended to give the hat some structure and prevent it from getting too soft.
For this project, you can use any number 4 medium-weight yarn in the colors of your choice, along with a size I crochet hook.
To start, crochet the four granny squares. Each square should have a floral pattern in the center, which can be achieved with the use of different colored yarns. Once you have all the squares, join them together with zig-zag stitching. This will create the top of the hat.
Next, create the brim by crocheting around the edges of the hat. Use single crochets and half double crochets to create a sturdy and well-formed brim. You can adjust the size of the brim to suit your preference.
Finally, add any finishing touches you like, such as a ribbon or flower embellishment. You now have a beautiful floral bucket hat that's perfect for any summer day.
With a little practice, you'll be able to make these hats in a variety of colors and patterns, so you can have a whole collection of stylish hats to wear.
