To get start­ed on your cro­chet beanie, you’ll need worsted-weight yarn and an appro­pri­ate hook size, usu­al­ly around 6 mm, for your desired fit. We rec­om­mend check­ing our cro­chet hat size chart to deter­mine the ide­al head size for your project. You’ll cre­ate a stur­dy and styl­ish hat using basic cro­chet stitch­es like sin­gle and slip stitch­es. The back loop tech­nique gives the beanie an excit­ing tex­ture, and you can adjust the hat’s height to your lik­ing. For an added touch, con­sid­er adding a faux fur pom-pom or a yarn pom-pom in a dif­fer­ent col­or for a unique look.

This list of sizes is down below. I cre­at­ed a video in case you need more assis­tance. You will need a pony­tail hold­er to make this messy bun hat.
