A Brief History: From Granny Squares to Modern Streetwear<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The granny square<\/strong> has long been a staple in the crochet world. Originating in the 1800s, it became popular in the 1970s during the boho and hippie fashion era. These small, square motifs made of colorful yarn were used to create everything from afghans to clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the bucket hat<\/strong> \u2014 originally designed in the early 1900s as a practical hat for Irish fishermen \u2014 experienced a fashion renaissance in the 90s and again in the 2020s. Combining the two \u2014 the nostalgic granny square and the practical bucket hat \u2014 results in a head-turning piece that\u2019s equal parts functional and artistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add bobble stitches<\/strong> into the mix, and the design becomes even more visually engaging. Bobbles create a raised, puffed texture that adds dimension and character to each square, elevating the traditional granny square into a statement of texture and style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Yarn over, insert hook into stitch, yarn over and pull up a loop. (Yarn over, pull through two loops)<\/em> repeat this 4 more times in the same stitch (5 partial dc total), then yarn over and pull through all 6 loops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    \ud83d\udc49 Make the brim as wide or narrow as you like (about 1.5″\u20132.5″ is standard for bucket hats).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
