Step-by-Step Pattern

Materials

• Yarn: Worsted weight yarn
• Hooks:
  • 5.0 mm crochet hook (for the brim)
  • 5.5 mm crochet hook (for the body of the hat)
• Optional Tools:
  • Tapestry needle (for weaving in ends)
  • Scissors
  • Pom-pom (optional for decoration)

Pattern Instructions

1. The Brim

Step 1: Using the 5.0 mm hook, make a slip knot and chain 9.
Step 2: Skip the first chain and make one single crochet in the second chain. Continue making one single crochet into each chain (8 stitches total).

Step 3: Chain 1, turn your work, and make:

• 1 single crochet into the first stitch (under both loops).
• BLO single crochet in the next 6 stitches.
• 1 single crochet in the last stitch (under both loops).

Step 4: Repeat Step 3 until the brim measures the desired circumference of the hat. Ensure the stitch count is divisible by 5 (e.g., 60 rows for an adult beanie).

Step 5: Fold the brim in half and join the two edges together with slip stitches.

2. The Body of the Hat

Step 1: Switch to the 5.5 mm hook. Turn your work to the right side.

Step 2: Work 1 round of single crochets along the long edge of the brim:

• Make 1 single crochet at the top of each ribbed row.
• At the end of this round, you should have as many single crochets as ribbed rows (e.g., 60 stitches).
• Join the round with a slip stitch.

Step 3: Begin the body pattern:

• Round 1:
  • Chain 2 (does not count as a stitch).
  • Make 2 FPdc around the first two stitches.
  • Skip 1 stitch, and make 3 double crochets in the next stitch.
  • Skip 1 stitch, and repeat the sequence (2 FPdc, skip 1, 3 dc) until the end of the round. Join with a slip stitch.
• Round 2:
  • Chain 1.
  • Skip the first post stitch, and make 1 double crochet in the first dc of the group below.
  • Work FPtc around the skipped post stitch.
  • Skip the next two dc stitches. Work FPtc around the next FPdc from the previous row.
  • Continue repeating this crossed pattern (dc, FPtc, skip 2 dc, FPtc) until the round is complete.
• Round 3:
  • Chain 2. Repeat the pattern by alternating FPdc stitches and clusters of 3 dc into the spaces between stitches from the previous round.
• Round 4:
  • Repeat Rounds 1-3 until the hat measures the desired height, stopping short of the crown.

3. Shaping the Crown

Step 1: Begin decreasing at the top:

• Make single crochet decreases (sc2tog) over the next two stitches until the end of the round.

Step 2: Repeat Step 1 for 2-3 more rounds to close the gap at the top of the hat.

Step 3: Cut a long tail, thread it through a tapestry needle, and weave the tail through the remaining stitches. Pull tight to close the crown completely.

4. Adding the Pom-Pom (Optional)

Attach a pom-pom to the top of the hat for a decorative touch.
