The popular Leprechaun Hat crochet pattern has been updated just in time to crochet one (or several) for St. Patrick’s day! The pattern still has the same hat shape and contains 5 sizes: baby, toddler, child, adult (recommended for women), and large adult (recommended for men). The new, updated version of the pattern provides a clearer gauge and adjusts the bottom of the hat so that it fits more snugly around the head. This new version replaces the old pattern, so if you already purchased the pattern, feel free to log into your store account and re-download the pattern and the new version will be provided for free.

Crochet a matching toilet seat cover and contour rug. Choose a yarn that is machine washable so that you can easily toss them in the washing machine when needed. The patterns are crocheted with a large crochet hook and 2 strands of medium/worsted weight yarn held together, to achieve a thick fabric. The large crochet hook makes the patterns fairly quick to crochet. Although not required, apply puff paint along the underside of the rug for an added nonslip grip.
