Peci Haji (White Hat)

Assalamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh :

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
(May the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be upon you)

In Indonesia we name this type of white hat as "Peci Haji" because usually it is worn by male who had already performed hajj pilgrim in Mekkah. Please ignore the female mannequin I used in the picture.

I designed this particular Peci Haji because a friend of mine asked me to make one for him.

Usually, the hat is just in simple sts, but this time I put some motives  on the hat but still look masculine.

The pattern is as follow:

Material: White Rayon thread
Hook size: 1.50 mm

Estimate measurement:

Diameter 31 cm

Diameter of the crown – 11.5 cm 

Height of the hat: 9.5 cm

Stitches are used in the pattern:

Ch - chain

Dc - double crochet

FPDC - Front Post Double Crochet

BPDC - Back Post Double Crochet

FPTR - Front Post Treble 

BPTR - Back Post Treble

Sl st - slip stitch

Special Note:

•  The 2 ch at the beginning of each round do not count as 1^st dc/sts
•  Sl st always at the 1^st sts
•  Round 1 to 11 - to form the crown of the hat. In this part there is increase sts in each round. Increase or decrease the amount of round in this part to adjust the size of the hat.
• - Round 12 to 26 - to form the height of the hat. No more increase sts in each round.
