1920’s Jewel Flapper Hat Crochet Pattern

Category: Crochet / Hats + Headbands / Patterns / Vintage

The other day I was lucky enough to discover the most beautiful filigree vintage brooch, and if you know me, you’ll know that vintage things are by far my greatest weakness!
Once I had the brooch in my possession, dozens of 1920’s design ideas started flooding in, and I couldn’t help but create this jeweled flapper hat!
Are you also a big fan of all things vintage?

6.00mm Crochet Hook
100g Bulky Yarn {12ply} – I used Lincraft Veronica

    • I love Downton!… Can't wait for the 5th series 🙂
      I've always loved 20's fashion, and I'm so happy so many people have recently started loving it too, since now I can create all these flapper/cloche hats for my blog!

  3. I have been looking for unique patterns to make Chemo caps for donations, I thinks this would be lovely, but I don't see a an option to print the pattern, do you think you might add one?

    • What a wonderful thing to do!
      I've added a "Print" button to my blog many times before, but it always disappears.
      Maybe just try copying my pattern into a word document and then print it.
      Hope this helps!

    • Are you referring to the "Chain 3" at the start of Round 1? If so, the first chain acts as the magic loop. Then the other 2 chains count as the first HDC.
      Hope this helps!

  13. Olivia, I made this hat and it looks good but where the chain 12's are there is a big hole in the top when I pull them together to make the "bow" any suggestions? I had to select anonymous because I just started and don't have user names for the others. 🙂

  17. I just finished crocheting this for my mother as a chemo cap. I doubled up a baby blue with this sparkly white yarn to create this pretty wintery look. I’m just waiting on a snowflake to sew on in place of the jewel and it will be all done. This hat is absolutely gorgeous and I’m pleased that I found this pattern. Thank you so much for providing this pattern.

  24. Olivia, I can’t find the 1920’s jewel flapper hat pattern. I love your designs, but am not very clued up on the computer I’m afraid. Please can you email it to me. . I am in New Zealand and it is cold here for 10 months of the year, so I will wear this A LOT!!!
    Blessings & stay safe & well in these Covid times!!
