    One Skein Crochet Hats for Women: 10 Free Patterns to Make and Wear!

    Published: Dec 24, 2012 · Modified: Apr 21, 2022 by Tamara Kelly · 37 Comments

    Hat season is in full force. And crocheted hats are some of the hottest hats around right now - in stores, on celebrities, and everywhere you go! One of the best things about hats is that they're typically a one skein project, made in just an evening. It's a great way to try a new yarn, use up a bit of stash, or indulge in something a little more luxurious. On that note, here are 10 free patterns for one skein crochet hats for women - each of which uses 180 yards of yarn or less!

    UPDATE 10/26/15: Before we get started, if you are looking for the brown hat with a tan brim and flower, that hat is only available on Amazon (click here) - it was never part of this collection of free hat patterns. Someone (I don't know who) uploaded that hat photo with a link to this article to Pinterest, and now many people are coming here for a pattern I never had, and cannot provide. If you have pinned that hat, please delete the pin, and feel free to pin one of these with this link!

    10 One Skein Crochet Hats for Women

    1. Divine Hat by Sarah Arnold, on Rheatheylia: (150 yds) I've made this hat myself, but here's one my friend callisto9 on Ravelry made - and paired with the Artfully Simply Infinity Scarf! So gorgeous, a perfect yarn choice! free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    2. Super Slouch Hat by Danyel Pink, on Raverly: (150 yds) I love the texture of the hdc sts in this hat, and I really love how she uses different hook sizes to great effect! A great hat for beginners, though I think I'll make one too!free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    3. Spring Spirals Beanie by Tasha Wells, a Ravelry download: (120 yds) Great for smaller skeins, this pattern shows of both the yarn and the great look you can get simply crocheting in the back loop only! Another perfect hat for beginners!free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    4. Midwinter by DROPS Design: (162 yds) With Super Bulky yarn you can make this hat in no time! This pattern is written a little differently than most crochet patterns, with less explicit instructions, but it's actually a pretty simple hat so don't be afraid to give it a try!free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    5. Fold Over Hat by Carrissa Knox, on Penelope Rae: (145 yds) I wanted to feature this hat because it can go from fashion to forest in a snap! I love the look when it's all folded up, and as Midwesterner I know the importance of leaving as little exposed as possible when the worst weather hits. Instructions for an optional brim included! UPDATE: This hat is no longer offered for free, but is available for purchase on Ravelry. free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    6. Easy Sideways Hat by Lion Brand Yarn: (147 yds) This one is hailed as the perfect first hat for crocheters - worked flat and then seamed, it stretches to fit just about everybody!free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    7. Triton's Thinking Cap by Kelly McClure, a Ravelry download: (150 yds) This looks so warm and cozy! Instructions are included to make it with a variety of yarn weights too. I just want to curl up in this hat.free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    8. Backloop Visor Beanie by Erica Jackofsky, via the Internet Archive: (138 yds) I love the profile of this hat! The brim is understated and the back curl adds a lot of interest.free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    9. Slouchy Peaked Hat by Bernat Design Studio, on Yarnspirations: (108 yds) Oh hey, are those crossed stitches I spy? There's lots of texture and interest in this hat. The big brim and slouch combine two very "now" looks too!free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women
    10. Cables and Lace Broomstick Hat by Kristin Omdahl, free ebook from Crochet Me: (168 yds) This is just gorgeous, and the little pockets of air should be surprisingly warm! Uses both broomstick lace and crochet cabling, so lots to keep you interested here. Note though that lots of people have had to go way up in hook size, so be sure to check your gauge!free one skein crochet hats for women free crochet pattern hats for women

      Is there anything you did differently while making the Devine hat? I followed the pattern exactly and it just doesn't seem to have the nice shape that your hat has. Any tips will help.

      Thank you

        Hi Melissa! It can look a little wonky fresh off the hook, but a light blocking might help a bit! I don't think I did anything in particular to it though. I wish I had a secret tip to share!

          I gave it another go (this time completing even though the shape was kinda weird). I wore it for a bit and now it has a great shape!

        I have now made many newborn baby hats using a modified version of the Divine Hat pattern. I. Skipped step 2, 4, 6 and used 3 Dc's until the hat was the length needed. These are being donated to Project Humanity. Thank you!

      I've made the Divine hat several times, it is so pretty in the Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable yarn ( Parrot is pictured, but I've done it in Echo and Dragonfly and Winery)! Your Fallen Leaves slouch is on my "to do" list also 🙂

        Yes, Yarnspirations purchased Red Heart early in 2019 and now Red Heart yarns can be found on Yarnpsirations.com. I'm sure I'll have a ton of links to fix over the coming years!
