The Texturized Crochet Beanie Pattern uses some of my favorite stitches and techniques to create the fun textures.
This hat is the 2nd pattern in the Crochet Along for a Cause. We are making 1 hat per week to donate to a cancer center, school, or homeless shelter all summer long. There’s always time to join! You can find all the details and hat patterns HERE.
Last week’s hat was the Beach Day Bucket Hat.

Hi! Is this a child’s sized hat?
It’s adult
Sorry, but I don’t think round 8 is very clear. I am a seasoned crochet but am baffled by this round. Does it mean to ch 2 “and” dc in each stitch? What loop? I don’t have loops. Please clarify.
The 3rd loop is behind the two top loops you usually insert your hook into.
So, are you double crocheting into every dc from previous round, or skipping two, to account for the chain 2?
DC in every stitch around. The ch 2 does not count as a stitch.
I love this patten i will be useing it a lot thank you
Thanks!
Found this by accident and fell in love. It is so simple yet pretty. Thank you.
Thank you!!
No problem…. please ignore last comment, I’ve worked it out 😉
Hi, thank you for the pattern. I just finished the top portion. It’s 6″ not 7. Should I go around again with an increase? Or start over with an “I” hook?
Hi! You can add an additional increase round 🙂
Thank you! I’ve made this a few times, I must crochet tight? It’s always 6”, I’ve learned that using bigger hooks for larger sizes works well for me. Thank you for the beautiful pattern.
Hi again ☺️
I’m making this for a man. Do you think following the pattern with a J hook would work well? I thought I’d ask since maybe you’ve done it?
Thank you,
Susan
Hi! Yes, I think that would work 🙂
I just wanted to thank you, with deep and heartfelt appreciation… for designing top-down hat patterns. My fiance likes for his beanies to be custom-fit to his head, with the length “just so,” and I can ONLY do that with a top-down pattern. Bottom-up patterns just don’t fit right, no matter how I try to make them work (I’ve even tried to “reverse-engineer” them to work from the top down, with some laughable results) and sadly there are far more of those out there. He doesn’t even like the ribbing on the bottom-up patterns. It’s so frustrating to see fun looking patterns, just to discover that they’re worked from the bottom.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you… and encourage you to keep on making top-down patterns! We love them!!!!
Yay! Thank you so much!!
