Its design combines the features of a classic bowler and bucket hat to create a beautiful modern accessory. It will make a favorite addition to your fall and winter outfits, so be sure to add it to your wardrobe!

What Yarn Works Best For the Annie Bucket Hat Pattern?

To get that glorious, fluffy look, you will need a faux fur yarn. The designer suggests using 1-3 skeins of Lion Brand Go for Faux, depending on the size you’re going for.

The sample visible in the photos was made in a versatile Mink colorway that will easily match many outfits. An 8 mm hook will help you control thick strands of yarn while doing stitches. 

Can Beginners Successfully Make This Crochet Bucket Hat?

This chic bucket hat crochet pattern works up in the round using just basic stitches. However, faux fur yarn makes it very difficult to see the stitches, which is why it’s not recommended for absolute beginners.

This is a great chance for anyone with a good understanding of crochet basics to learn how to crochet super bulky projects and work with unusual yarn textures.

Essential Tips For Crocheting With Faux Fur Yarn

Since it’s almost impossible to see the stitches while working with faux fur yarn, it’s good to know a few helpful tricks for handling this type of yarn:

  • Work by feel – knowing how stitches are made is essential to feel where to insert your hook.
  • Use stitch markers – these useful tools will help you mark the beginning of the round and count your stitches.
  • Maintain even tension – uneven tension will make stitches even harder to see or feel.
  • Don’t stress – faux fur yarn creates an ultra-fluffy texture that is very forgiving, so even if you make a mistake, no one will notice it!

Paying attention to these little things will help you complete your crochet bucket hat successfully. And by looking at the picture, I can assure you that your effort will certainly pay off!
