Crochet Pattern Hat for Everyone - very easy




(To purchase/download, please click the image)

Everyone will be happy to receive a hat like this:
ONE hat model wearable in all the variations shown, for both men and women. Also easy to make for children or as a simple hat for babies (though thinner yarn is recommended).

And the best part:

• no gauge (it doesn't depend on the exact centimeter),
• no increases or decreases,
• for any yarn you like
• possible in all sizes.

The PDF pattern is illustrated.

These crochet skills are needed: chain stitches, single crochet.
Everything else and slip stitches are explained. Video link tips for learning to crochet for beginners are included in the PDF.

By the way: A matching crochet pattern for an infinity scarf to go with this hat is also available here in my shop: https://www.crazypatterns.net/de/items/20003/haekel-moebius-loop-schal-fuer-alle-einfach


Materials: for the pictured model with a head circumference of 55 cm to 60 cm: approx. 250 g merino yarn, 50 g – 45 m, crochet hook 6.0; measuring tape, scissors, yarn needle for weaving in ends.
The ribbed pattern requires approx. 50 g more yarn than is normally usual for hats. The crochet hook size should match the yarn being used.

A great piece for every bag lover!
In the photos, you can see the embroidered front and the unembroidered back. Of course, you can embroider both sides or leave the bag "plain" - whatever you prefer.

Hello everyone, this is my first time posting here, and I’m not sure if this is the right place, but I’ll just go ahead and start. I have a question about the patterns that are—or aren’t—here!?!?
I’m relatively new here and looking for a nice pattern for my wife, who writes patterns herself. I thought I might find something here since the “Dream Projects” section sounds promising. Why do some of them just say “-”? Does that mean they’ve been forgotten, or does it mean “check the shop”?

Greetings, Klaus

Hi Klaus,
there are certain guidelines for this thread that weren’t followed in the posts marked with “-”, so I’ve removed those posts.
Welcome to our forum and to the platform.
Take a look here:

There you’ll find our current bestsellers — I’m sure there’s something there you’ve been wanting to try.

Okay, I had no way of knowing that. Thanks for the quick reply and the tip. Maybe I’ll stop by more often—seems like there’s a lot going on here ;)
Greetings, Klaus

Yes, Klaus, there’s always a lot going on here.
And the “-” thing is only this extreme here in this thread.
Enjoy your time here.

This bestseller, a crocheted craft bucket that even crochet beginners can make quickly and easily, is a lot of fun and extremely practical. It keeps all your crochet tools and your current project organized and tidy. Wherever you go, you’ll have everything you need for your crafts right with you.

For the yarn, feel free to use your leftover yarn of the same weight (133 meters/50 g = “Bravo” yarn). You’ll
also need a size 3.5 crochet hook and a 5-liter plastic bucket.

I hope you enjoy this project. Yours, Ina

Many of you probably haven’t tried felting yet. Don’t worry! You can do it, too. In my pattern, I describe in great detail exactly how to make the felt boots with a roll-top cuff . From choosing materials to the felting process all the way to the finished shoe with a rubberized sole—in this detailed pattern, I describe and show you everything step by step.

Once you’ve made and worn felt shoes, you’ll never want to be without them and will wonder why you didn’t do this sooner. They’re breathable, soft, warm, and walking in them feels like walking on clouds because the thick felt cushions your steps. The pattern covers sizes 20 through 45, so there’s a size for everyone. You can choose the colors of the shoe and the cuff as you like, as well as the height of the roll-top cuff. Bright and colorful for kids, more subdued for men—anything is possible. Feel free to check out my sample photos on the product page.

I hope you enjoy making them—Ina

One of my bestselling designs is this beautiful cozy shawl to snuggle up in.
It can be crocheted with one Bobbel (yardage 800 m). The shawl drapes beautifully and can be worn in many different ways.

Here’s the pattern



The shawl is approx. 190 cm long / approx. 90 cm high. Since the pattern is very simple and repeats every 2 rows, the shawl can be made in any size you like.
