Normally, when I make a hat or ear warmer for myself I target right around 20″, but I knew that this hat would stretch so I allowed for more negative ease and made it 17.5″ long. So for myself, I wanted to make a small adult size, which according to the chart has a range of 19-20″. You’re going to want to work 2-3 inches less than the smallest size in your range or 4-5 inches smaller than the measured head circumference. Since you are working in the back loops only, the hat has a lot of stretch. The chart provided in the simple ear warmer pattern is perfect for deciding how long to crochet your rectangle. To adjust the circumference, you’ll want to add or subtract rows and work towards the measurement (number of inches around) you’d like. If you want to adjust the height of the hat, which I would only do if you are making it for a child, then you just need to decrease your starting chain.Īt the size provided, there’s enough height to fold the bottom of the hat up to create a thick brim. It is super easy to adjust the size of this hat to fit anyone.

There are already many patterns for chunky ribbed beanie and even ribbed beanies using worsted weight yarn, but I didn’t see too many using DK weight yarn. It’s in my favorites because it’s easy to work with, it creates great drape and there’s a wide range of colors available. Premier Everyday Anti-Pilling Yarn is pretty much my favorite go-to acrylic yarn. Related: Easy Ribbed Crochet Headband Yarn If you are just slightly beyond the very beginner stage of crocheting, I think you’ll be able to follow this crochet beanie pattern. Since the stitches are stretchy and the hat doesn’t feel stiff, it is super comfortable to wear. The texture of created by the combination of the soft, thin yarn and the ribbing is so lovely. The last stitch of each row is worked through both loops like a normal half double crochet, giving you a neat edge that doesn’t looked stretched like it can if you work that last stitch of the row in the back loop only. To keep this crochet hat pattern simple, I used half double crochets worked in the back loop only which gives that lovely ribbing. This ribbed hat was made to match the ribbed crochet infinity scarf and I think they make a beautiful set! Stitches I like it because it takes the least amount of math to adjust the size to exactly what you want. My favorite method is to start with a rectangle, join the ends to make a tube and cinch the top.
