As we all know, bullying is a huge problem in today’s society. Every year, Lion Brand Yarns holds an annual anti-bullying campaign to raise awareness and it’s called the “Hat Not Hate” Campaign. You can use the hashtag #hatnothate on your social media platforms to see updates on the campaign or see what others are doing to contribute.
The way crocheters and knitters can help with this campaign is by making blue hats for school-aged children. Simple as that! You can visit their website for their Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) for questions such as “Where do I donate the hats?”.
I truly love this campaign. I was bullied as a kid and I know so many others that have been bullied as well. It really leaves a scar for the rest of your life. So, I wanted to do a round up of hat patterns you can use for your contributions. Let’s see what patterns you can make!
