**Foun­da­tion Chain and Basic Stitch­es:** Begin your cro­chet buck­et hat by cre­at­ing a foun­da­tion chain. Then, use basic cro­chet stitch­es such as sin­gle cro­chet, half dou­ble cro­chet, and dou­ble cro­chet to build the body of the hat. These stitch­es will ensure a snug fit and com­fort­able wear.
