Haute Hippie Belt Crochet Pattern Download

Braided I-cord gives this statement belt incredible texture, and though it looks complicated, it’s really very simple! It’s also endlessly customizable. Wear it high on the body at the true waist, or make it longer and wear it slung low on your hips. Crochet it with three strands of I-cord instead of five for a narrower belt. Use a vintage belt buckle for a one-of-a-kind Beth Nielsen piece only you could have created!

Finished Size: Directions are given for size S/M. Changes for L/XL are in parentheses. Belt measures 2½" wide x 36 (41)" long (6.5 x 91.5 [104] cm). Sample made in size S/M.
Yarn Weight: DK weight (#3 Light).
Hook: Size G/6 (4 mm) and E/4 (3.5 mm). Adjust hook size if necessary to obtain correct gauge.
Notions: Yarn needle; large belt buckle (at least 2" [5 cm]). It’s helpful to have the kind where the bar is at one end instead of in the middle of the buckle.
Gauge: With smaller hook, 8 sts = 2" (5 cm). Precise gauge is not critical to this project.
