Blossom Bucket Hat Crochet Pattern

Looking for the perfect summer crochet project? The Blossom Bucket Hat Crochet Pattern is a fun and floral twist on a classic accessory! This cheerful hat is made up of vibrant flower granny squares, stitched together to form a lightweight and breathable design that’s perfect for sunny days. There’s a step-by-step video tutorial to help you create each granny square with ease. Made with soft, sturdy cotton yarn, it’s a great project for warm-weather wear.

Choosing Your Yarn

For this hat I used I Love This Cotton Yarn from Hobby Lobby. This is one of my favorite cotton yarns because it has all the benefits of cotton, but is very soft. Any worsted weight cotton yarn would work. Cotton yarn is a great choice for summer hats because it’s breathable, lightweight, and moisture-absorbing, helping keep you cool and comfortable in the heat. It also has just the right amount of structure to hold the shape of a hat without being stiff. Plus, cotton is durable and easy to care for—perfect for accessories you’ll wear all season long!

Making the Hat

The Blossom Bucket Hat is constructed in three simple steps. First, the flower granny squares are sewn together to form the sides of the hat. Then, the top is added with decreasing rounds worked directly onto the squares to shape the crown. Finally, a flared brim is crocheted around the bottom edge, giving the hat its stylish, sun-ready finish.
