Pizza Hat - Toddler, Child, Adult Sizes - Free Crochet Pattern

Make this fun toddler sized crochet pizza hat with the free pattern below!

In the middle of Fall, I asked my son what kind of hat he wanted me to make him. He said "Pizza hat!" I thought it was the most genius and funniest idea, so I made it come to life for him!

This hat is so much fun and I love all the pepperonis on it! On the contrary, my son prefers plain pizza only, but I had to add something to the pizza! Plus, pepperonis are such a classic topping. :)

I made the brim stretchy for a good fit, and the main portion of the pizza kind of resembles an elf hat - but it's pizza! So cute!

I made enough pepperonis to fill up one side of the pizza and even wrapped one around the hat, so it looks like half of a pepperoni. :) You can make as many pepperonis you would like - or even add some more toppings!

Grab your hooks and get ready to make this for a pizza loving toddler!
