I really enjoyed making these fish hats! Some were for past swap partners, some were just made for fun or to give away.

Pattern: Crochet Fish Hat (Ravelry link) Hook: I (5.5 mm) or J (6.0 mm) for a slightly larger hat Yarn: each hat used a little over 1 ball of Lion Brand Mandala yarn & miscellaneous acrylic yarn for the eyes
I used 2 strands of yarn held together to make the hats because Lion Brand Mandala is a thinner yarn. For the lip, instead of turning at the end of every row, I crocheted every other row left-handed so they look more like the rest of the hat.

Oh my goodness! I am obsessed with fish right now because itβs pond time. I love the reddish one because the eye look the most alive, but they are ALL super cool!
