  10. To form this stitch, insert your crochet hook into the next stitch. Wrap your yarn around the hook once and pull it through the stitch. You now should have two loops on your crochet hook. Wrap the yarn around the hook again and pull through both loops on the hook. crochet hat with ear flaps pattern
