Image
To match my braided scarf..a braided slouchy hat! It work up pretty fast. And it's easier than it looks! The pattern is in US terminologie. My yarn matches a 4mm and 5mm hook. You will need a size H (5mm) and J (6mm) crochet hook, scissors and tapestry needle. I used two toiletpaper rolls to make my big pompom. Let's get crocheting! The braid; Start bij chaining 66 with your J hook( 6mm), switch to your H hook(5mm), double crochet in the 4th chain from the hook, double crochet till the end. Fasten off and weave in the ends. Make 8 strands. Click here  for a video tutorial for connecting the strands and making the braid. Connect the strands bij inserting your hook in the first chain (of the starting chain3) on top of the strand. Single crochet into the first chain, skip 1 chain, single crochet into de last chain. Single crochet into the first chain of the next strand, skip 1 ch, single crochet in the last chain. Repeat until you connected all 8 strand
