Center of the Flower:

Start with the Magic Circle using the center color yarn.
Chain 3 (counts as your first double crochet).
Make 15 more double crochets into the magic circle, totaling 16 double crochets.
Tighten the magic circle, slip stitch into the third chain of the starting chain 3, cut off leaving a tail, chain one, and pull tight to secure.

First Row of Petals:

Attach the petal color yarn a few stitches away from the tail of the center for ease.
Chain 2, then make a sequence involving yarning over and pulling through loops on the hook four times in each stitch around for all 16 stitches, creating 16 petals.
Chain 1 after each set of loops through to complete each petal.
Finish by slip stitching into the first chain space created between the first two petals, then cut off leaving a tail.

Second Row of Petals:

Repeat the petal process as above, but after the initial chain 2, follow a slightly different stitch pattern to make the petals appear larger than the first row.
Complete 16 petals, slip stitch, cut off, and leave a tail.

Square Base:

Using the square color yarn, attach your yarn to any space on the flower.
Chain 3 (counts as a double crochet), then make two more double crochets in the same space (to start forming a corner).
Follow by creating sides of the square through 3 double crochets in each space and corners with 3 double crochets, chain 2, 3 double crochets pattern.
Once the square is formed, slip stitch into the third chain from the beginning of the round, cut the yarn, and pull through.

Save

Assembling the Hat:

Make a total of 5 squares for the hat body (4 for the sides and 1 for the top).
Slip stitch the squares together on the wrong sides to form a hat shape, ensuring to connect the squares neatly along the edges.
For a neater finish, work slip stitches through the back loops only.

Save

Brim:

Start with a row of single crochet around the bottom edge for a solid base.
Follow with two rows of double crochet, increasing in the first row to create a wavy brim effect. Use front loops only for the increasing row to guide the brim upwards.
Complete the brim by alternating between two double crochets and an increase.
