Pattern Overview
The beauty of this pattern lies in its simplicity, making it perfect for beginners. You’ll start with a magic ring, a foundational technique in crochet. From there, we’ll work in rounds, primarily using double crochets. The pattern increases gradually, creating the slouchy effect.
Step by Step Pattern

- Round 1: Start with 8 double crochets in the ring.
- Round 2: Increase by double crocheting twice in each stitch (16 stitches).
- Round 3: Follow the pattern of two double crochets in one stitch, then one in the next, repeating around.
- Round 4: Alter between two and one double crochet, achieving a gradual increase.
- Finishing: After reaching your desired length, complete with a slip stitch and a round of single crochets for a polished edge.
