What you'll need

Experience required:

  • Hold the yarn

  • Creating a chain


Feel free to do an Entry Level course first or check out my collection of entry-level videos on YouTube.


Here's a list of supplies to gather up:

  • 3x 50gm (100m) balls of gorgeous New Zealand 8ply or double knit yarn in your main colour, second colour & third colour. (I used Oatmeal, Natural & Pistachio, all from our Touch Yarn range)

  • A 4mm Crochet Hook

  • A Stitch Marker if you wish

  • A needle

  • A copy of the Arlo Hat pattern - download coming up next


Feel free to flick me an email if you are confused gathering all your supplies, I'll gladly help you out.

If you purchase your yarn from Needle & Hook, I'll pop a printed copy of your pattern in with your order.
