Be Mine Messy Bun Hat I couldn't resist designing one more messy bun hat! The Be Mine Messy Bun Hat was inspired by Valentine's Day and some leftover scraps of various Red Heart Super Saver and Red Heart With Love yarns, I had in my stash, in red and two shades of pink - waste not, want not, right? The hat works up quickly with basic stitches and the strategically placed rounds of color changes and post stitches give this hat a bit of interest and texture. Messy Bun hats not your style? No … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Be Mine Messy Bun Hat

Free Crochet Pattern: Little Miss Pompom Hat
Little Miss Pompom Hat I designed The Little Miss Pompom Hat for Red Heart Yarns, using their  Red Heart Yarns Baby Hugs Medium. It's always such a treat to try a new Red Heart Yarn product and this was no different. I had tried the lighter version of this yarn before and was quite pleased with the Peachie Cocoon Baby Set I designed, and the medium weight did not disappoint either! The yarn is a soft premium acrylic, works up quickly and comes in a nice … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Little Miss Pompom Hat
Free Crochet Pattern: Autumn Sunset Slouch
Autumn Sunset Slouch I made the Autumn Sunset Slouch to coordinate with the Autumn Sunset Super Scarf I released a few weeks ago! What is unusual is that both of these patterns were designed for ME! I find that I crochet all year long for others and to design patterns and I never make anything for myself, so this was all mine :) I used the same open lacy stitch as the scarf, with Red Hearts Unforgettable yarn in Stained Glass. The lighter stitch pattern makes for a less bulky hat which is … [Read more...] about Free Crochet Pattern: Autumn Sunset Slouch
Crochet Pattern: Bean Town Beanie & Messy Bun Hat
Bean Town Beanie & Messy Bun Hat Well, I jumped on the messy bun bandwagon! Well, not quite -- I had a beanie in the works and decided to add the messy bun option and two different brim options too! I love the way this hat turned out. It's a new stitch for me, one I've been wanting to try for a while and finally the time seemed right. I love how it creates a lot of texture and sort of a woven look. The pattern includes a basic band that I like with the beanie or slouchy and then … [Read more...] about Crochet Pattern: Bean Town Beanie & Messy Bun Hat

Crochet Pattern: Aspen Slouch
Aspen Slouch The Aspen Slouch is the coordinate to the Aspen Cowl I released last week. Like the cowl, the slouch has a lighter, lacy look but make no mistake, it will provide you with a layer of warmth on those cool fall and winter days! I used Knit Picks Chroma, which is a soft wool blend, in the color Sandpiper but this hat would look lovely in any color. I love the subtle muted color transitions in the striping. I added buttons for a little extra personality too! The … [Read more...] about Crochet Pattern: Aspen Slouch
Crochet Pattern: Chestnut Slouch
Chestnut Slouchy I love slouch hats and this is one of my favorites. The stitch combination in the body of the hat makes for an interesting, textured look, that is easy to achieve. I love it in the contrasting color combination but for a more subtle look try it in a pretty solid, I'll bet it would even look great in a tweed or nubby yarn! The pattern is sized for toddler, child, small and large adult and it looks great with pompoms too! Click below for pompom tutorials you … [Read more...] about Crochet Pattern: Chestnut Slouch
