Crochet Pattern Notes
- This crochet pattern is written in US terms.
- All measurements given are unblocked.
- Note that measurements are given as exact as possible. But crochet tension & technique might give variations in the result, that changes from person to person.
- Read pattern instructions carefully before beginning to make sure you understand everything. It might save you hours frogging your work & crocheting it again!
- Make a swatch that measures at least 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4 inches using the stitch the gauge is given for. If your swatch matches the gauge, you’re good to go. If the gauge is wrong, you might need to change your hook. Go up in crochet hook size if your stitches are smaller & go down in crochet hook size if your stitches are bigger. Learn more about testing gauge.
- Check yarn info if you want to find an alternative or test your yarn against the gauge. Learn more about substituting yarn.
- This pattern is written for 1 size. Size adjustments are added under the heading “Sizes & Measurements”.
- At the end of each row, the stitch count is given in parenthesis.
Sizes and Measurements
Circumference at the bottom: 52 cm / 20.5 inches.
Height: 25 cm / 9.8 inches
Size Adjustments
- Make the hat higher by adding extra stitches before you start row 1, added/reduced by 1 stitches at a time. If you add/reduce multiple stitches, add/reduce evenly across the row.
- Adjust hat circumference by adding/reducing the number of rows you crochet. To make it easy to assemble the hat with the same yarn tail, end with an odd row.

Techniques You Will Need
Crocheting In The Back Loop
In this crochet pattern you need to know how to crochet in the back loop only.
This means that you will not crochet through the whole stitch as usual. A typical stitch contains two loops. One in the front, nearest you, and another stitch in the back, furthest away from you. One is called the front loop (the one nearest you), the other one the back loop, the one furthest away from you.
These stitches are abbreviated with BL in front of their regular abbreviation.
Instructions for the Ribbed Crochet Hat Pattern
Make 43 st using the FSC technique.
Row 1 (RS): Ch 1 (counts as 1st st), sl st in BL the next 6 st, BLsc 1 in the next 12 st, BLhdc 1 in the next 12 st, BLdc 1 in the next 12 st, turn (=43 st).
Row 2: Ch 1 (counts as 1st st), sl st in BL of all next st from prev row, turn (=43 st).
Repeat row 1 and 2 until you have crocheted 61 rows, ending with a repeat of row 1.
Row 62*: Sl st in unworked side of FSC from beginning AND BL of all st from prev row (=43 st).
*If preferred, seam together with a needle instead of working row 62.
Fasten off & cut yarn leaving a yarn tail long enough to close the top of the beanie.
Finishing
With a needle & the yarn tail, go through every other row on the top of the beanie.
After going through all, pull tight to close the top of the beanie.
Fasten threads & weave in ends.
