So when St. Patrick's Day rolls around I'm usually scrambling to find something to wear. I usually have to settle for an article of clothing that is much more teal than kelly green or something green I've literally only kept around to wear once a year. Sometimes, however, I end up just tying a green ribbon in my hair.\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\nI wanted to be prepared this year. One thing I do happen to have in green is yarn, so I decided to start from there. Instead of just a scarf or hat, I wanted something specifically festive for St. Patrick's Day. After all, I will probably be pairing it with some less-than-green clothing. I decided I wanted to make a flower crown.

I really struggled to figure out how to accomplish that task without making individual clovers and shamrocks and sewing them together, which would have been quite tedious. I wanted to make this a fairly quick project since it is a wear one-day-a-year thing.

That pattern is quite pretty and the 5-petal flowers would definitely make a lovely spring and summertime crochet flower crown.

The Messy Bun Hat, a.k.a. The Ponytail Beanie, a.k.a. The Mom Bun Hat, a.k.a.... well, I think that's it. Anyway, I felt like I saw those hats all over the web in December. I even got a special request to make one for Christmas. So I looked at a couple free patterns out there and then ended up making my own version.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003EThis hat's starting row is crocheted around an elastic hair band. I like that the hair band helps to stretch the beanie to fit over the bun without having to have a huge gap. The hat is worked up with bulky yarn so it's a fairly quick project. I also decided to publish this pattern because it gave me an excuse to make my own! I think these are perfect for bad\/lazy\/dirty hair days in the winter. It also perfect for preventing hat head. You can just put your hair up in a loose bun, put on the hat, and stay warm outside. Then when you're inside, you can just take off the hat and undo the bun and you have lots of volume in your hair. I'm still working on perfecting my messy bun, though, to give the hat maximum hair pompom effect.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Ca name='more'\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\n\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/i100.photobucket.com\/albums\/m36\/shesgotthenotion\/Crochet%20Patterns\/mbeanie11_zpsma3gzsyu.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"http:\/\/i100.photobucket.com\/albums\/m36\/shesgotthenotion\/Crochet%20Patterns\/mbeanie11_zpsma3gzsyu.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"620\" alt=\"Messy Bun Hat Crochet Pattern: free crochet pattern for a messy bun\/ponytail beanie | She's Got the Notion\"\/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/i100.photobucket.com\/albums\/m36\/shesgotthenotion\/Crochet%20Patterns\/mbeanie12_zps0menccyc.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg src=\"http:\/\/i100.photobucket.com\/albums\/m36\/shesgotthenotion\/Crochet%20Patterns\/mbeanie12_zps0menccyc.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"620\" alt=\"Messy Bun Hat Crochet Pattern: free crochet pattern for a messy bun\/ponytail beanie | She's Got the Notion\"\/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\nThis hat uses a special stitch that I first used when making the \n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.allaboutami.com\/tripleluxecowl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003E\u003Cb\u003ETriple Luxe Cowl\u003C\/b\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E from \u003Ci\u003EAll About Ami\u003C\/i\u003E.

It gives it a knit-like stitch or a braided effect in the body of the hat. I also used front-post and back-post double crochet stitches to also give the brim a knit-like ribbing effect.

I spent hours working on it, tweaking it, and trying to make it something crocheters of all skill levels could use.

The decision to start selling to create more income would allow me to post more regularly and share more projects with you.

I am excited to finally have it finished! The funny thing is this looks more like a fall-winter decoration and I finished it in the spring.

For the buttonhole piece, take off or add a row before, in between, and after the buttonholes. I recommended crocheting the back piece first to get an idea of the final size of the pillow. \n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\nThe pillow cover measures approx. 15\" x 15\" (unblocked). It could easily fit a 16\"x16\" pillow form for a looser fit, or a larger pillow form for a tighter, overstuffed looking fit. I have mine in a 18\"x18\" because that's the only pillow form size I have handy, but I might make a 16\"x16\" for this cover. \n\u003C\/P\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv align=\"center\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.dpbolvw.net\/click-7765274-11055686-1351104964000\" target=\"_top\"\u003E\n\u003Cimg src=\"http:\/\/www.tqlkg.com\/image-7765274-11055686-1351104964000\" width=\"650\" height=\"\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\"\/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ch2\u003E\nMaterials Needed\u003C\/h2\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\n\u003Cli\u003EAran weight yarn (I used \u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/1FHXsOK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003E\u003Cb\u003ECaron One Pound in Deep Violet\u003C\/b\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E*†)\n\u003Cli\u003EH\/5.0mm Hook\n\u003Cli\u003E3 buttons (mine are 1 3\/8\")\n\u003Cli\u003ENeedle for sewing buttons\n\u003Cli\u003EPillow form (\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/www.shesgotthenotion.com\/2014\/10\/how-to-sew-pillow-form-with-zipper.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003E\u003Cb\u003Emake your own!\u003C\/b\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E)\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\n\u003Ci\u003E* I am not sure exactly how much yarn this project requires.
