A No Curl Tunisian Crochet Hat (The decrease) Final Part 3

Hey friends I’m back with the final tunisian  hat update. I finished the decrease/crown of the hat.  

I made the decrease with tunisian simple stitch. Why? Because I haven’t figured out how to decrease with the honeycomb stitch.  😢 I also ran out of the first 2 colors so had to add some new ones to finish the hat.

You will need to know TSS and how to decrease with the forward stitch.

You should have 80 stitches. We are decreasing starting with 16. Each row decrease by 1 until you are down to 7 stitches between the decrease stitch  

 TSS 14 and TSS 15 & 16 together around 

TSS 13 and TSS 14 & 15 together around 

TSS 12 and TSS 13 & 14 together around 

Continue decreasing until you get to TSS 5 and TSS 6 & 7 together

Bind off as usual with the return stitch color. Snip the main color leaving a tail long enough to tie and weave in. Once you get the bind off with the return color finished, pull up a loop about 12” and weave it through the loop, of the return stitch, that’s closest to you.   When you make it all the way around drop the tail inside the hat and turn the hat inside out. Pull tight and tie off and secure with the main color tail. Weave in ends, or finish the hat however you finish them. Me I usually tie a couple knots and snip. 

I hope this makes sense to you.  I'm no expert in pattern writing.  I mostly just use "chicken scratch" as I call it.  LOL!
