As promised, here it is! I hope you all enjoy making it as much as I do! Note: I did promise you the woman's pattern too, and I have it all written up, just not typed and no pictures, but I will get it up this week, I PROMISE! Also, I just want to give a huge thanks for your support! Please keep spreading the word about our blog. The more traffic we get the more FREE stuff we can offer. Thanks again!

· I hook (hat body) and H hook (bottom rim)
· 4 colors of Worsted, Med yarn. (I used Vanna’s choice Sapphire, Chocolate, Mustard, and Olive)
Special stitch:
This diagram shows where the horizontal bar (or diagonal looking stitch) is located (on WRONG SIDE of rnd):
Ch4, ss to 1st ch to form loop (or do a magic circle), ch 2.
Rnd 1: With color #1: Work 12 hdc into loop. Join with ss to back horizontal bar (or diagonal loop -- that's what it looks like to me!) behind beginning (you will do this through the whole pattern! See special stitch picture above) ch 1. Change to color #2. (12) ch 1
Rnd 2: Work 2 hdc in same st as joining (always do this at the beginning of each row). 2 hdc in each back diagonal st around. This will make the stripes stand out, so remember to always do it throughout pattern. Join & change to color #3. (24) ch 1Rnd 3: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 2 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 2 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 4. (32) ch 1.
Rnd 4: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 4 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 4 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 1. (39) ch 1.
Rnd 5: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 6 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 6 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 2. (45) ch 1.
Rnd 6: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 6 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 6 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 3. (52) ch 1.
Rnd 7: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 7 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 7 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 4. (59) ch 1.
Rnd 8: 2 hdc in same st as joining, hdc in next 8 st. * 2 hdc in next st, hdc in next 8 st. Repeat from *. Join & change to color # 3. (66) ch 1.
Rnd 9-20: hdc around (66). (Note: always feel free to make the hat shorter or longer by taking out rows or adding them)
Rnd 21: With H hook: sc in back diagonal loops around.
Rnd 22-23: sc around in each sc stitch.
Fasten and finish off.
That's it! Let me know if you have any questions!

My husband wants me to make him a crocheted beanie. The problem that there are just no enough patterns on the web. Plenty for children and female adults. Plenty enough to keep me busy anyway. :) In my search for a male beanie, I found your wonderful site. After reading thoroughly through this site, I have also found a beanie pattern for him. I'd better make it fast though because in Australia we're coming to the end of winter. I have now bookmarked your site and will check in every now and then. Cheers.
ReplyDeleteHi I just finished making this beanie, and I love it!!! Thank you so much for posting this free pattern. However, I noticed my back stitches are slanting to the left going down. How do I get the back joining stitches to line up straight?
ReplyDeleteMoana -- I am so glad that you love your hat!! They are super fun to make! About the lining up in the back, I did a ton of research and I could not figure out how to make it straighter either!! This stitch isn't a well used one, so any information is scarce. If you figure it out, let us know!! I did post an updated version of this pattern here: http://theworstedcrochetblog.blogspot.com/2013/03/updated-striped-hat-pattern-3-sizes.html with more sizes available. Happy Crocheting!!
ReplyDeleteGreat hat! Thank you!
