This Crochet Hat with Brim Pattern is so easy to crochet. The single crochet stitch is the main stitch used. And because I’ve used chunky yarn and a 9.0mm crochet hook it crochets up within a few hours. I absolutely love this pattern!
The hat sits loosely on the head and can be made in an adult size with the following written instructions. If you’d like a child size hat then use a smaller hook. To dress it up you can add a brooch, flower, buttons, bandana or a hair clip like I have. Feel free to be creative!
Embellishments seem to add that extra twang to crocheted hats.
This hat is great for yourself, your girls and especially for charity.
Materials Required
1 x 100gm ball of chunky yarn (or use 2 balls of 8 ply/DK/worsted weight yarn and crochet the two strands together to get the thickness)
9.0mm crochet hook (use a smaller hook for a smaller hat)
embellishment such as a brooch, flower, buttons or a hair clip (optional)
