You will love the Waiting For The Train 1920’s Cloche Crochet Pattern. It is easy to crochet and uses Debra Norville’ Serenity yarn. It’s a bulky weight and will hold embellishments like silk flowers, lace, feathers and vintage jewelry.

Waiting for the train to arrive was a good reason to wear a cloche that is embellished.
It is easy to embellish this type of crocheted hat to resemble a vintage 1920’s hat, as the yarn used makes it heavy enough to sew on a few heavy embellishments.

Taking photos of my model wearing the Wating For The Train Cloche was a fun day.
We went to Spencer West Virginia to the Municipal Park. There is a museum there that has a train station with a caboose on the track. It was the perfect place to take photos.
Using a large cabbage rose that I found at Michaels was perfect to sew on to the side of this hat.
Then a bit of lace was pleated and sewn on the back of the rose. Feathers were then glued into place making a unique and Vintage Inspired Cloche.

It was so good to have you on my side of the mountain. If you crochet this hat, I hope you will let me know.
Take care and God Bless,
Krissy.

Love this hat. Have you been to the Hocking Valley Railroad in Nelsonville? Thank you.

No I haven’t! I just ran to look at their website…and that looks like so much fun! Have you taken one of their train rides? I just saw they have a Memorial Day Train ride special. Hmmm…now I am off to see how far it is from my house.

Makes me remember going to meet grandma & grandpa at the train every year! Nice hat!!

Claire Kennedy says
Love making hats most of all. All of my earnings from the sale of my crochet products goes to local grassroots charities in my area. Plus I donate over 100 hats per year to homeless and people in need in my area and in the Arctic city of Iqaluit, Nunavut. I rely a lot on donated yarn, but being a yarn addict, I also buy quite a bit! Lol
Kris says
How fascinating! So you Iive in Canada? I had never heard of Iqaluit. I did a search and found a fascinating video. I am sure they love all of the hats that you donate! What a blessing you are to them!

I have done something similar to that. It was a variegated pink that had muted browns and greens. Then I placed HUGE spiky pin zinnia on it. It was beautiful!
Susan says
Very cute hat. Iām working on using up my stash and am trying to make things to donate.
Kris says
Thank you! This would be wonderful to donate to homeless. Such a warm hat and so fast to crochet.
