What Stitches Do I Need to Know?
This crochet winter hat pattern is an easy project for beginners that uses just basic stitches. You don’t need to know how to crochet in the round either because it’s worked flat as a rectangle and then sewn together.
The outstanding ribbed effect you will achieve by working half double crochets in the back loops only, and you can add a cute pom pom or pom poms for a playful touch.
What Yarn Should I Use For This Beanie Pattern?
As the name of this pattern suggests, you will use chunky yarn to give your crochet beanie a nice squishy feel. This can be any bulky-weight yarn accessible to you. The best options for winter garments and accessories are wool and acrylic, which provide warmth and softness.
How to Adjust the Size Of This Chunky Hat?
The pattern includes instructions for a winter crochet hat with a circumference of 26″ (67 cm). To make your beanie looser or tighter, simply add or reduce the number of worked rows. If you want to achieve the perfect fit, your hat should be 2-3 inches smaller than your head circumference.
