Slouchy Beanie Crochet Pattern 

FREE Sugared Plum Beanie Crochet Pattern by Easy Crochet

Since this crochet slouchy hat is worked in rows, it is a little easier to make than a hat worked in the round, which makes the perfect hat for a beginner to try.

The Yarn

I designed this crochet hat with my favorite Lion Brand Yarn, Vanna’s Choice! It is a 100% acrylic four weight yarn that is great to work with.

I use it for so many of my projects because it is easy to find, comes in so many beautiful colors, and is easily washable and dryable.

For this slouch, I used the colors Dusty Purple, Eggplant, and Linen, which I think complement each other nicely. Take a look at them below.

  1. Really cute hat. Which rows would you recommend deleting if you didn’t want it slouchy but a shorter length? Thanks so much

  2. Super cute Problem….I’m using same yarn, same size hook, it’s super tiny!!! I even tried crocheting super loose, almost, but stretched to the max!! Should I go up one or two hook sizes!?!?!?

  3. Cute hat but my first attempt didn’t turn out as expected. I followed the directions exactly and the hat looks great but it barely fits my two year old. It’s tiny! My gauge is correct and I used the same size hook and the Vanna’s Choice yarn. Any ideas about why this didn’t work?

  4. I’m making this pattern as a Christmas gift, colors slightly altered for a man, but they’re just so handsome together.

    However, I think the pattern is off. The photos show every other row as linen, but the written pattern is a 3 row repeat, which would cause the two colors to touch each other. I suppose the pictured object is the intended design?

      1. Thank you for the reply. However, by following the pattern, I’m not making the same hat as you! If the pattern is [2, 1, 3], that’s [c, a, b] or Linen, Dusky Purple, Eggplant…meaning the purples are definitely touching. But the photos show every other row as Linen. If that’s the case, the pattern should be [2, 1, 2, 3], right?
