Thank you for your under­stand­ing and sup­port!

In this easy cro­chet hat pat­tern, we’ll use the “back loop” of stitch­es to cre­ate a beau­ti­ful ribbed tex­ture. This tech­nique adds depth and char­ac­ter to your hat. Plus, the rib­bing is visu­al­ly appeal­ing and func­tion­al, as it stretch­es to fit var­i­ous head sizes.

You can choose your “hook size” based on the yarn you’ve select­ed, ensur­ing the hat has the right thick­ness and warmth. We’ll use a “mag­ic ring,” a handy way to start projects in the round, elim­i­nat­ing the need for a tra­di­tion­al chain and slip stitch. Once the mag­ic ring is com­plete, you’ll work with “sin­gle cro­chet stitch­es” in the back loops to cre­ate the hat’s brim.

As you con­tin­ue, you’ll move on to “dou­ble cro­chet stitch­es” and “col­or changes,” craft­ing a hat that’s styl­ish and unique. Don’t wor­ry if you’re new to cro­chet; this is an “easy cro­chet hat pat­tern,” and we’ll guide you every step.

Feel free to exper­i­ment with your choice of col­ors, and don’t for­get the play­ful “yarn pom pom” on top to give your hat a fun fin­ish­ing touch. You’ll be amazed how a sim­ple col­or change cre­ates a strik­ing two-tone effect.

The “yarn weight” you select will deter­mine the thick­ness and warmth of your hat, mak­ing it ver­sa­tile for dif­fer­ent sea­sons and cli­mates.

This cro­chet two-toned hat is per­fect for foot­ball games! I used an I hook and medi­um worsted yarn. This cro­chet beanie hat tuto­r­i­al turned out so cute! This easy cro­chet hat is per­fect for cool­er days! In just one easy step, you can cre­ate a two-tone cro­chet hat that will turn heads!

Cre­at­ing these two-toned cro­chet hats is a spe­cial pas­sion of mine, espe­cial­ly because they’re per­fect for show­cas­ing team spir­it dur­ing col­lege foot­ball games. They’ve become quite the crowd-pleas­er in the stands, mak­ing game day even more excit­ing.

I hook and medi­um worsted yarn. I made this for an adult. You can go down a hook size for tighter stitch­es, but add about 5 chains. If you want to make this for a child go down a hook size but omit about 5 chains on the chain count and have less rows for each col­or for a child, so per­haps 18 rows of each col­or but I made this for an adult.

I did 21 rows of yel­low and 21 rows of blue. You will want to do a few rows less for a child. I only made this for an adult, so I would rec­om­mend doing the one col­or and the oth­er col­or sep­a­rate­ly,  sl st them togeth­er just in case you need more or less rows for a child or your­self. 

Rnd 1: I hook, yel­low yarn, chain 40 plus 1, Turn

hdc in the 2nd chain from the count. Turn

Rnds 2–21: yel­low yarn, ch 1, hdc in each back loop across, Turn *Repeat for 21 rows

Rnds 22–42: with blue yarn, you can col­or change with your new col­or or make a new col­or pan­el, just in case you need more rows and don’t want to redo it all. Then you could sew them togeth­er. You want both pan­els of col­ors to be equal with the same amount of rows. 

At the end, sl st the col­ors togeth­er to make a tube.

Then take a foot or so of yarn with yarn nee­dle weave in and out on the top and pull it closed. Weave in your ends on top and through­out the pat­tern. 

Fas­ten off. Turn it right side out, to hide the seems. Fold over a cuff of about an inch or so. I hope you enjoyed this cro­chet beanie hat tuto­r­i­al!

For your con­ve­nience, we have pro­vid­ed a “free pat­tern” and a help­ful “video tuto­r­i­al” to guide you through the process visu­al­ly. The step-by-step instruc­tions will ensure that your hat turns out just the way you want it, and you’ll be sat­is­fied with the sat­is­fac­tion of fin­ish­ing a project in no time.

This “two-tone cro­chet hat” pat­tern is about sim­plic­i­ty, ver­sa­til­i­ty, and style. As you explore “dif­fer­ent col­or” com­bi­na­tions and exper­i­ment with your favorite yarns, you’ll dis­cov­er that cre­at­ing beau­ti­ful cro­chet pieces is an “easy project” acces­si­ble to all lev­els of cro­cheters. With the option to craft your beanie in “dif­fer­ent sizes,” you can tai­lor them to suit any­one, from “child size” to “large adult.” Whether you’re mak­ing them for your­self, as thought­ful gifts, or even for char­i­ty, you’ll find that the “eas­i­est way” to bright­en up the win­ter sea­son is by adding a touch of hand­made warmth. So, pick up your cro­chet hook, let the cre­ativ­i­ty flow, and enjoy the reward­ing process of bring­ing these charm­ing hats to life.

When work­ing with the “back loop,” you’re cre­at­ing a delight­ful ribbed effect in the brim of your hat. This sim­ple yet effec­tive tech­nique is ide­al for those who pre­fer an added touch of tex­ture to their cro­chet projects. As we focus on dif­fer­ent sizes of hats, don’t for­get the impor­tance of select­ing the right “hook size.” The size of your hook can sig­nif­i­cant­ly affect the final dimen­sions of your hat, mak­ing it a ver­sa­tile acces­so­ry that can accom­mo­date a wide range of head sizes.

Col­or plays a vital role in cre­at­ing the per­fect cro­chet hat. Our “col­or changes” tech­nique lets you craft your two-tone beanie in the hues that res­onate with you. Exper­i­ment with con­trast­ing shades or go for a more sub­tle tran­si­tion – it’s entire­ly up to you. And for that final, play­ful touch, add a “yarn pom pom” or even a “faux fur pom pom” to the top of the hat. This charm­ing detail adds a touch of whim­sy and ensures your cre­ation stands out in style.

Com­plet­ing your “easy cro­chet hat pat­tern” using the step-by-step instruc­tions, video tuto­r­i­al, and free pat­tern, you’ll be amazed at how these sim­ple tech­niques can lead to such a stun­ning result. This cro­chet project is per­fect for a sea­soned cro­cheter look­ing for a quick and reward­ing endeav­or or a “begin­ner cro­cheter” eager to embark on their cre­ative jour­ney. Shar­ing your work on “social media” will con­nect you with a vibrant com­mu­ni­ty of cro­cheters, and togeth­er, you can explore “new pat­terns” and find inspi­ra­tion for your next projects. So, with your “yarn nee­dle” in hand, enjoy the sat­is­fac­tion of a “fin­ished hat” and the world of end­less pos­si­bil­i­ties that cro­chet offers. Your beanie is more than a hat; it express­es your unique style and cre­ativ­i­ty. Hap­py cro­chet­ing! 

As we com­plete this “Two-Tone Cro­chet Hat” in just a straight­for­ward step, you’ve cre­at­ed a styl­ish acces­so­ry and embarked on an excit­ing cro­chet jour­ney.
