Crochet Bucket Hat Free Pattern

I have a fun new pattern to share with you all this week! This quick and easy free crochet bucket hat pattern is the perfect summertime crochet project. If you love easy patterns that are worked entirely in one piece, then I just know you will love this one!

I had so much fun coming up with the design for this hat. My goal was to make the pattern super easy to follow. The entire hat is made with single crochet stitches, and it can’t get much easier than that! The horizontal bands along the side are also just single crochet stitches, but worked in the back loop only.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this pattern. If I get enough interest I will work on designing some more summer hat patterns to share with you over the warmer months!

The Weekend Crochet Bucket Hat Pattern

Materials:

To make one hat, you will need the following materials:

Gauge:

4.5 sts X 4.5 rows = 1 inch in single crochet.

Size & Fit:

Adult Women’s Medium.

Head circumference 21-23 inches.

Abbreviations:

SC : Single crochet

Notes:

This simple bucket hat is worked from the top down in the round.. Here are a couple of pointers before you begin crocheting your hat:

  • Work the rounds in spirals; do not join at the beginning of each round. It is very helpful to use a removable stitch marker to mark the end of each round.
  • Each round shows the total number of stitches for the round in brackets. It is a good idea to check the count every few rows.
