Crochet Hat Patterns

Free crochet hat patterns for every head and season: fitted beanies, slouchy hats, berets, messy bun hats, ear warmers and balaclavas.

Hats are the classic one-evening project, and they are also the one where gauge really matters. A hat that is two inches too wide will not stay on. Measure the head, subtract about an inch for negative ease, and check your round count before you commit to the whole thing.

Most hats here are worked bottom-up in the round or top-down from a magic ring. For little ones see baby hats, and for matching pieces try scarves and wraps or cowls.
