DIY Hat Knitting Pattern. This listing is for a downloadable PDF file containing a do-it-yourself knitting pattern.

Included are complete instructions for all sizes: Adult XL, Adult, Child, Toddler, Baby, Preemie, and Holiday Ornament.

Make these beanies yourself with this classic knit beanie/skullcap knitting pattern. This knitting pattern lets you create your own knit beanie in every size. These simple but classic hats can be worn any time of year. They are warm enough to keep your head cozy, but light enough to keep in your coat pocket just in case it gets chilly. These beanies are designed to fit snugly and are not slouchy. Wear them alone or under your ball cap or coat hood.

These hats are worked in the round from the bottom up.

This pattern can be knit in the round in three different ways. Instructions are included for double point needles, the magic loop, and shorter circular needles. Pick your favorite method to knit in the round, then follow the instructions that match your chosen needles.

I used Caron Simply Soft for the design, but you can substitute any worsted weight yarn in this pattern. For this pattern, I recommend using a yarn made of acrylic, wool, or a combination of the two. Malabrigo Rios is a great yarn to use in this pattern, if you prefer wool. Make sure you check your gauge when substituting yarn. Try this pattern with variegated yarn colors (for example, Simply Soft Paints) to spice things up.

This pattern is for personal use, gifting, and charitable donation of completed items. You may also sell handmade items created using this pattern. Do not copy this pattern and distribute it.
