This Hat Uses Simple Stitches!
Since this hat project only uses basic crochet stitches it works up fairly quickly (about an hour) and makes the perfect last-minute gift. If you can single and double crochet, then you can make this hat for sure.
The Yarn That’s Perfect for This Crochet Hat!
I used Lion Brand Vanna’s Choice in Oatmeal because of the neutral color and also because this color can be worn with just about anything!
This yarn is a four weight yarn, so it is perfect for winter to keep you cozy but also lightweight enough for Spring & Fall too! I love making crochet beanie hats that can be worn throughout different seasons just like this hat!
