BASIC BUCKET HAT
NOTE: You will be working in the round. Start every round with a CH1 and end with a SLST to the first ST.

SC single crochet
HDC half double crochet

SUPER EASY BEANIE
![](https://assets.bigcartel.com/assets/517539/IMG_8319.jpg?w=2400&h=2400&fit=clip)
NOTE: You will require a tapestry needle and basic needle skills for this pattern!
YARN PLY & HOOK SIZE: One size fits most. A 4mm hook and 8 ply yarn makes a 19cm wide 29cm long (unrolled) beanie. For chunkier/thinner yarn adjust number of starting CH for correct length.
ABBREVIATIONS:
ST stitch
CH chain
DC Double crochet
BLO back loops only
BODY
Row 1: CH 58
Row 2: DC in third CH and in each CH across. Turn work. (55)
Row 3: CH3, DC BLO in every ST across. Turn work. (55)
Row 4: CH3, DC FLO in every ST across. Turn work. (55)
Row 5-33: Repeat rows 3 & 4 alternating.
This is where you can alter the width of your beanie. For a wider beanie simply add rows, or subtract rows for a smaller fit. Measure against your own head as you go if you’re not sure!
Row 43: Fold swatch in half (good side facing inwards) and line up the first and last rows. CH1, SC in both first and last row ST. Repeat across. This will leave you with a crochet tube.
With your work inside out, thread your tapestry needle with 50cm length of your chosen yarn and knot the end to the top edge of your crochet tube, the second ST of the Row works best. Use a simple and loose running stitch around the entire top edge of the tube, and then pull tight to cinch!
Turn inside out then roll up the bottom edge to finish up!
Enjoy!!
