Assembling your Heart Pop Crochet Hat Pattern

Lay your hat with the wrong side facing out. Use your tapestry needle to sew up the seam. Turn your hat inside out so that the right side is now facing out and the seam is on the inside.

Closing the Top of your Heart Pop Crochet Hat Pattern

Join yarn to the top of the hat. You are going to work in the round.

Toddler Size

Rnd 1: ch 2, *hdc2tog*, join (36 stitches)

Rnd 2: ch 2, *hdc2tog*, join (18 stitches)

Child Size

Rnd 1: ch 2, *hdc2tog*, join (38 stitches)

Adult Size

Rnd 1: ch 2, *hdc2tog*, join (40 stitches)

Rnd 2: ch 2, *hdc2tog*, join (20 stitches)

Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Use your tapestry needle to sew the top closed.

Making the Brim of your Heart Pop Crochet Hat Pattern

Brim is made separately and then sewn onto the hat. I used a G-6 4 mm crochet hook size.

Row 1: Ch 9, sc in 2nd ch from hook and each rem ch, turn (8 stitches)

Row 2: Ch 1, sc in each st in the back loops only, turn (8 stitches)

Toddler Size: Repeat row 2 for a total of 72 rows.

Child Size: Repeat row 2 for a total of 76 rows.

Adult Size: Repeat row 2 for a total of 80 rows.

Use your tapestry needle to sew the brim to the hat. Sew each stitch from the hat to a row of the brim. The brim will stretch as you go.

Add a Pom Pom to your Heart Pop Crochet Hat Pattern

  1. Wind the yarn around both arches. 
  2. Cut the yarn along the middle gap.
  3. Tie with a piece of scrap yarn. 
  4. Open the arches and remove the pom pom.
  5. Trim any loose ends.

Attach the pom pom to the top of your hat.
