1920’s Pompom Cloche Hat Crochet Pattern

Now before you say anything, no I did not cut my long hair, but instead used a faux bob hair tutorial to create this vintage do!

I’ve always wanted to try some Gatsby inspired hairdos, but just didn’t have the time or patience. However, now I’m seriously considering chopping off my long hair, so I can channel my inner flapper, every day!

Have you ever tried any vintage hairstyles before?

I used a clover pompom maker, but if you don’t have one you can
easily make one using THIS video tutorial. Each pompom measured 2.5 inches.

Fasten off, and weave in loose ends.
