 EDITOR’S NOTE
As managing editor of I Like Crochet magazine, let me
be the first to say welcome! I’ve been a yarn lover for
most of my life (I was six years old when my grandma
showed me how to make my own scarf) and I can
honestly say that I have the best job in the world.
While my role does consist of emailing designers and
writing up magazine contracts, I count myself incredibly
lucky to be able to look at gorgeous projects — from
blankets and shawls to the cutest crochet scarves and
hats — every day.

Since you are new to our magazine, I truly hope you enjoy
this freebie for the adorable Textured Brimmed Hat!
