"Looking for a go-to crochet hat pattern that’s easy, quick, and fun to make? This free easy crochet beanie pattern checks all the boxes! Whether you're brand new to crochet or just want a relaxing project, this beginner-friendly beanie is a great choice. It’s made using simple half double crochet stitches and features a stretchy ribbed brim created with easy post stitches—no advanced techniques required. The pattern includes instructions for four sizes: baby, toddler, child, and adult, so you can make a matching set for the whole family. It’s worked from the top down in the round and is easy to customize—add or subtract rounds to adjust the length, or top it off with a pom pom for extra flair. It’s a cozy and stylish staple that’s great for chilly weather, thoughtful gifts, or craft fair prep. You can use any soft worsted weight yarn you have on hand, making this a great stash-buster, too. Acrylic yarns like Red Heart Soft or Caron Simply Soft work especially well, but feel free to use your favorite yarn as long as it matches the gauge.
