**Choos­ing the Right Yarn and Hook Size**: The first step in cro­chet­ing this hat is select­ing the best yarn for the job. You can use a vari­ety of yarn weights, from worsted weight yarn to super bulky yarn, depend­ing on the hat’s intend­ed style and warmth. Be sure to check out our cro­chet hat size chart to find the per­fect fit for your head size.

**Basic Cro­chet Stitch­es**: You’ll be using basic cro­chet stitch­es like dou­ble cro­chet, chains, and slip stitch­es to cre­ate the bas­ket weave pat­tern. These stitch­es will give your hat tex­ture and warmth, mak­ing it per­fect for the cold weath­er.

**Bas­ket Weave Stitch Pat­tern**: The bas­ket weave pat­tern is achieved by alter­nat­ing between front loop and back loop stitch­es. This adds a unique tex­ture to the hat. Don’t for­get to use a stitch mark­er to keep track of your rows, and repeat the row until your hat reach­es the desired height. Once you’ve reached the top of the hat, you’ll be shap­ing it with decreas­es and slip stitch­es (sl st). Fol­low the instruc­tions care­ful­ly to ensure a snug and com­fort­able fit.
