I’ve seen so many cute hats this season. Some textured, some simple. I don’t have many slouchy hat patterns so, I decided to design one. And the Simple Slouchy Beanie is just that, a simple slouchy beanie crochet pattern!

It is worked from the brim up, making a wide brim that gets folded up. Pattern is written in adult size only. Complete the beanie with a faux fur pom pom on top. I make my own using Faux Fur fabric purchased from a craft store. See my post HERE about how to make your own! Or make a yarn pom pom by hand, without any tools.

I made my Simple Slouchy Beanie with I Love This Yarn! by Hobby Lobby. This is one of my FAVORITE yarns for hats and scarves! It is so soft and comes in so many beautiful colors.

Materials Needed

I 5.5mm Crochet Hook
Medium #4 Yarn, 250 yards
Scissors
Tapestry Needle
Faux Fur Pom Pom

Gauge

2” square = 7 hdc x 5 rows

Stitches Used/Abbreviations (US Terms)

HDC – Half Double Crochet
SL ST – Slip Stitch
BLO – Back Loop Only

Pattern Notes

Beginning chain DOES NOT count as a stitch
Beanie is worked from the brim up with the brim worked vertically, then turn to work the body of the beanie horizontally.
Tip to get 72 evenly around. Use stitch markers to mark every ¼ of the brim. Place 18 hdc between stitch markers, every ¼.
