Join colors, chain 3 and crochet 1 dc in every stitch making a slip stitch at the end of each row and beginning each row with a chain of 3 until you get your desired length.  I stopped at 7 inches.

Chain a chain long enough to fit the circumference of your hat and chain a few extra stitches.   At the end of your chain turn and bobble stitch in every stitch.  

Chain about 8 more chains that are about  5-6 inches long.

Sew in the chains to make it look like a lattice crust.  after sewing in the chains sew in the bobble stitched chain right underneath where the red stitches ended to make it look like the crust.
