I made this But­ter­fly hat for my four-year-old daugh­ter. She loves to wear hats! You can adjust the hook size by chang­ing it, which I have list­ed below. I uploaded a video if you need more assis­tance with this hat. I used caron soft yarn with an H hook, but you can use medi­um worsted yarn. In this cro­chet but­ter­fly hat tuto­r­i­al, we’ll show you how to make a trendy hat with easy steps. This hat is per­fect for sum­mer days, and is sure to turn heads!

We’ll show you how to cre­ate the hat using basic cro­chet stitch­es, and we’ll even give you tips on how to make it look trendy and styl­ish. After watch­ing this tuto­r­i­al, you’ll be able to make your cro­chet but­ter­fly hat in no time!

Use a small­er hook for a small­er size or a larg­er hook for a larg­er hat.

You can use medi­um worsted yarn, too. Use a dif­fer­ent size hook for the var­i­ous sizes list­ed above. For a more enor­mous hat, add anoth­er round of dc. If it’s a small­er size, then omit a dc round or two. Lengths are list­ed above with the hook size. Take a Mea­sur­ing tape from the top of the hat (Round 1) and to the bot­tom to mea­sure the length of the hat. The lengths are list­ed above the hook size need­ed for each size. Each round is about 1/2 inch long, depend­ing on the size.

sc=single cro­chet
dc=double cro­chet
