Hello crafters!

Today I want to share my colourful crochet crown pattern with you! These crowns are quick to whip up and can be made in any size. I think these would be cute to make for a kid’s birthday party, but really any day could be a great occasion to wear a crown 🙂

This tutorial shows you how to make a crown for an 8-10 year old; size of 21″ or 53cm. For a complete printable pattern (that includes sizes newborn to 10 years) you can head over to my shop.

The instant download PDF pattern includes everything you need to know to make your crown, including stitch descriptions, size chart and patterns for 7 different sizes.

The few dollars from my pattern sales keep me stocked with tea and yarn so I can keep creating and sharing 🙂

Supplies

• Worsted weight yarn (2 colours)
• 4mm hook

Stitches used

• foundation single crochet
• single crochet
• half double crochet
• 3dc cluster: [yo, insert into stitch, pull up a loop, yo, pull through 2 loops on hook] repeat [to] 2 more time. yo and pull through all 4 loops on the hook.
• ch 3 picot: a picot stitch works a chain (in this pattern, chain 3) then slip stitch back into the same stitch that you started the chain (in this pattern the 4^th double crochet stitch)

This pattern includes one row that uses both colours. If you do not know how to change colour while crocheting check out my colour change tutorial for all the details 🙂
