Lemon Sugar Hand Scrub {for Mom} The Boy Trifecta: Dino Spike Crochet Pattern. I sort of think it does. Or at least it seems so to me. And I've definitely got the crochet bug these days. I've got a little monster running around my house these days, so I thought I'd create a hat to reflect his wild insane out-of-control hilariously adorable personality. Of course, this one modeling the hat, he's not a monster at all. I mean seriously, how can you not love those eyes? In case you have any little monsters that you would like to make this hat for, here's the dino spike pattern. Hook: 5mm (H) Yarn: Any worsted weight is fine - I used Wool-Ease.

Mark the first stitch in each round. Round 1: Make a magic loop/ring, and do 6 single crochets in the loop.
