Crochet Messy Bun Pony Tail Hats!  It all started with a request from my daughter to make her a messy-bun hat! I had never even heard of them!  How on earth was I going to accomplish making this?  She always did have way too much confidence in me and in what I could accomplish!  Why must she challenge me so?

If you haven’t heard of these hats, don’t feel left out, I hadn’t either until Sheena asked me to make one for her.  She showed me a picture and asked, “Mom, can you make me this?” … so, I said to her, “I don’t know, but I can try!”  I went to work and to my surprise, I made it!

Messy Bun – aka – Pony Tail hats have a hole in the top of the hat so you can put your ‘messy-bun’ or ‘pony-tail’ through the hole so you don’t have all that bulk stuck in your hat.

Pretty cool, huh? I thought so!

Sheena has very long hair. She is a Labor & Delivery Nurse, so she wears her hair up in a rolled bun. Having a messy bun hat makes it easy for her to ‘poke’ her bun through the hole so she doesn’t have to worry about it getting messed up or mashed down when she’s going to and from work!

I also have long hair, however I don’t put my hair up in a bun (I’m not even certain how she gets that bun rolled like that, I have never asked her!) I do, however put my hair up in a ponytail quite frequently.  After I got done making hers, I had to make a Crochet Messy Bun Pony Tail Hats for me, of course!

Oh, but No, Not Done Yet!

Then, my husband (bless his heart, haha!) thought I should make some extras and take them on over to a couple of stores in Sabetha, Ks where I also sell my items.  To my surprise, one lady friend at a Beauty Shop where I sell at recognized them immediately!  She fell in love with them and said they were beautiful. Made me blush a little, lol.
