I totally enjoy making hats on a whole and bucket hats just bring a whole other excitement and having to use more than one colour is a plus. I made this hat wide to protect my face from the sun. I noted where you can stop decreasing if you don’t want to go as wide.

Shown above is a bucket hat in 3 colours and one in 2 colours. You can make hats in more colours if you choose. Just stick to a multiple of 2 for the checkered design, e.g. 2, 4 or 6.
