R2D2 crocheted hat pattern.

A few people have asked me to share the pattern that I used for the R2D2 hat.  
I didn't write anything down as I was crocheting, so this is only my best guesstimate based on going back over the hat and counting stitches.


Also...I've never written a pattern before, so I pray that this all makes sense.
I've tried to take a few photos to explain when words fail me.   

R2D2 Hat

For this hat I used 2 strands of Red Heart acrylic yarn (worked together) and a size J crochet hook. Colors of yarn needed Light Gray, Blue, Black , Red

GRAY	Ch 4, join with sl st to form a ring, Ch 2
	9 DC in the ring, sl st to join, Ch 2
	2 DC in each st around (join) - switch to blue
BLUE	2 DC in each st around ( join), switch to gray
GRAY	2 DC in the first st, DC in the next 3 st, repeat and join
	2 DC in the first st, DC in the next 4 st, repeat and join switch to blue
BLUE	2 DC in the first stitch, DC in the next 5 st, repeat and join
	2 DC in the first st, then 1 DC in each st around - join
	2 SC in the first st, then SC in each st around, join, switch to gray, ch 2
GRAY	DC in each st around ( join)
	DC in each st around ( join)
	DC in each st around ( join)
	DC in each st around ( join)
BLUE	DC in each st around ( join)
	DC in each st around ( join)
GRAY	SC in each st around ( join)
	SC in each st around ( join)

Front panel: 13 HDC, turn HDC in 2^nd st from end, 12 HDC across, ch 1, turn 

(repeat 3x)   Sew into place using blue yarn.

Red and blue spots: Use a single strand of yarn and a smaller hook

Ch 4, join w/ sl st, Ch 2

6 DC in the ring, join, Ch 2

2 DC in each st around 

(red spot stop here...black spot continue with one more row)

1 DC in each st around, join, fasten off and sew into place with red or black yarn

To divide the blue rows into sections, join a single strand of gray yarn to the row below.

Chain 6, 

pull top loop of chain through to the inside of the hat and fasten off.

 To finish - weave in all ends.    

And that's it.   :-)

This hat fits a average 10 year old boy.  You can adjust as needed to fit larger heads.

I have been asked for the pattern for my minion slippers.   Unfortunately  - I didn't take very good notes as I was making them, so I apologize if this pattern needs a bit of 'adjusting.'
(Also - I ask that you please do not use this pattern for profit. )

Thanks,
