Repeat the above step 5 more times.
Initial Arches
Chain 2, yarn over, and perform a double crochet into the first air loop.
Continue crocheting in rounds tightening the ring as necessary until 6 total arches are formed.
For the last arch in the round, modify by chaining 2, perform a double crochet into the first air loop, chain 2 again, and then perform another double crochet into the same connection.
Increasing Arches
Row 3: Doubling the Arches
Chain 5. Place a marker.
Single crochet into the connection between arches.
Repeat chain 5 and single crochet alternately into the arch and between arches until there are 12 arches.
Last arch as previously done (chain 2, yarn over, double crochet, repeat).
Row 4: Maintaining Arch Count
Continue with 12 arches following the chain 5 pattern with single crochets into each arch, updating marker placement as needed.
Last arch performed similarly to previous modifications.
For Row 5: Repeat of Row 4

Row 6: Expanding to 24 Arches
Double the arches by inserting additional chains and single crochet patterns between each existing arch until reaching 24 arches in total.
Finalizing the Base Hat

Repeat the 24 arch pattern for individuals preferring a narrow hat.
Optional Extended Rows
Rows 8-15: Continuing with 24 Arches
Simply continue the established pattern for a total of 8 more rows to match the hat size.
Rows 9-11 introduce skipped loops and relief stitches increasing texture and aesthetics, syncing double crochet with chain loops.
Continue by repeating patterns that enhance the relief and leaf-like patterns in the texture, until the desired number of rows or hat height is achieved.
