PDF Ribbed Crochet Beanie Hat Pattern.
‘Fisherman’s Winter’ is my take on the classic fisherman rib beanie hat. It has incredible stretch and is seamed at the crown so it fits to the top of the head with no gather. The pattern includes instructions for 3 yarn weights, each in 4 sizes.
Skills Used
This pattern uses mainly slip stitches and chains. You will need to work increases, decreases, keep careful count of your stitches and sew together the crown and side seam to finish the hat.
The pattern includes a photo guide, joining schematic and a link to a left and right video tutorial which takes you through some of the potentially challenging areas of the pattern.
Materials
The PDF is written out separately for 3 yarn weights, each requiring a different amount of yarn depending on size made:
4ply / fingering: 210-370m, 4mm crochet hook
double knit: 170 - 290m, 4.5mm crochet hook
aran / worsted weight: 140 - 240m, 5.5mm crochet hook
Details of recommended hook size and meterage by yarn weight and size are given in the pattern
Sizing
The pattern is written in 4 sizes; toddler, child, adult and large adult, to fit head 40-45cm, 45-50cm. 50/55cm, 55-60cm.
The hat is worked with a lot of negative ease so will be smaller than the head it is designed to fit.
More detailed measurements are given in the pattern along with guidance on how to alter the length of the hat.
Note that the adult 4ply version of this patter is available for free on the dora does website. Here you are purchasing the premium add free PDF which includes all variations and a photo guide.
