Crochet Hats are fun projects to make. They work up so fast and are a good break from bigger projects. This Berry crochet hat is a fun and easy pattern with only one row repeat after working the ribbing.
Available in Six sizes, Toddler, Child Teen, Adult Small, Adult Medium and Adult Large, this crochet hat is a perfect project for the whole family.
When designing beanie and Hats, beside having them as size inclusive patterns, i always choose a textured and warm stitch. This berry crochet hat just answers that. The textured stitch gives it extra warmth making it perfect for cold temperatures.

Construction
The crochet hat is made from the bottom up, starting with the ribbing around the head then from there to the crown.
The bottom ribbing is worked in rows of single crochet back loop only, then joined to form the base of main hat.
After joining the bottom ribbing, the other part is worked in rounds, turning after every round. After working the rounds to a desired height, it is then closed at the crown with running stitches along each stitch.
