Show off your stitches with this crochet cap pattern! The Halfway Harvest Crochet Hat uses several different stitches to create a variety of patterns that catch the eye. It makes a great cap for colder weather and will fit anyone from teenager to adult. The secret to its versatility is in its hybrid design that makes this hat fit looser than a beanie but tighter than a slouchy cap. Try making this easy one-skein crochet pattern in different colors for different times of the year.

From the designer: I’m Marie Segares from Underground Crafter. One of my favorite crochet tricks is to work into the back loop of the half double crochet stitch. It creates a classic look very similar to the stockinette stitch in knitting. The bulk of this easy one skein crochet pattern is crocheted with the half double crochet in the back loop, and then the stitches get more decorative at the forehead. After all, that’s the most visible part of your crochet hat, so why not showcase your stitches there?

This crochet hat pattern is a hybrid – looser than a beanie and snugger than a slouchy – so I call it the Halfway Harvest Hat. It’s very stretchy so it will fit teens up through adults. Enjoy!
