Who doesn't LOVE ice cream!! Pints have to be one of the best ways to eat ice cream!! If you're not totally obsessed with them yet I'll give you a few reasons why I like them so much...
Number 1: less mess than a cone plus they come in their own bowl
Number 2: they're the perfect size for NOT sharing {sorry not sorry... Mama needs snacks too} Number 3: you can actually manage to finish one before it gets freezer burnt (cause eww)
Number 4: they can be eaten all year round (don't judge we have long winters)
So naturally I chose a chunky wool blend for this project. It will keep your hands warm while keeping your ice cream frosty cold at the same time! Not to mention this project is so quick you can make one for all the ice cream lovers in your life!!
You will need:
Materials:
Yarn - 23 yds of Category 6 Super Bulky (Did someone day stash buster?!)
(I used Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick & Quick)
Gauge: 4” = 7 sts x 4.5 rounds in DC
Abbreviations:
CH: chain
HDC: half double crochet
SC: single crochet
DC: double crochet
FLO: front loops only
ST(s): stitches
PM: place marker
SL ST: slip stitch
FO: fasten off
Notes:
CH 1 does not count as a ST
For the sides you will no longer be making a CH or SL ST but instead working around in a spiral so it will be helpful to place a ST marker on your first SC
Pattern:
{Bottom}
MR, CH 1
Round 1: 10 HDC in ring, sl st to first HDC, pull tail tightly to close ring (10 HDC)
(I like to carry the remaining tail behind my work as to avoid having to sew it in later)
Round 2: ch 1, 2HDC in each ST around, SL ST to first HDC (20 HDC)
{Sides}
Round 3: CH 1, SC into the third loop of each HDC around until you reach the last ST, 2SC in the last third loop. do not SL ST or CH (21 SC)
Rounds 4 - 8: SC into each ST around PM on your first SC (21 SC)
{fold over brim}
Round 9: SL ST to FL of first SC, CH 2, DC into first and each FL around, SL ST to first DC and work an invisible FO (21 DC)
Now sew in your tail and Yay we're done! You may do whatever you like with items made using this pattern (hopefully eating yummy ice cream) however I require you credit me (Indie Fiberart // Jamie) as the designer. Sharing is caring!!
