Crochet Toddler Old Bun Hat Pattern + Tutorial

Crochet 2-4 Years Old Bun Hat

Crochet a Bun Hat that intentionally leaves space at the top of the hat to put up hair. You bring your hair through space. This particular pattern is an alteration on an existing pattern on Yarnspirations called the Snug with Clusters Crochet Hat.

The pattern has been written in three sizes. I have altered each size to start correctly for a bun feature at the top of that.
