Retro Messy Bun Hat Crochet Pattern

This fun yellow hat will be sure to brighten up any gloomy day – even though you can choose whichever color you’d like. People won't be able to help but ask you where you go your cheerful crochet messy bun hat from.

In this easy to intermediate crochet pattern, you'll begin by creating the band. Next, you'll work your way up to making the rest of the hat and finally add whatever button you may choose.

If you feel apprehensive about taking on an intermediate hat pattern I can help you with my step by step crochet fundamentals videos. I teach you exactly how to crochet a hat (and other projects) to help you get started. Just need to brush up on your skills? No problem I have my essential skills course where you can review 72 crochet (& knit skills) that all crocheters need.

For yarn, we chose merino wool yarn because it's warm, soft, and breathable. It doesn't have any of that itchy and scratchy feeling you might associate with wool.

Wear this versatile messy bun hat on a trip to the mountains or outside on a chilly morning walk to keep you cozy. Ok, it's time to grab your yarn and let's get started. Time to add some cheer to the world, one stitch at a time.

BAND:

With A, ch 10

Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. (9 sc) 

Rows 2-28: Ch 1, turn, sc in blo of each st across.  

Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing.  

Fold band in half, overlapping the ends by about 4 rows, so that row 28 lines up with row 4.

Use tail to sew band together where these two rows meet.  

The overlapping flap is now the RS of the band, and is where the button will be placed later. 

HAT: 

Do not join rnds unless indicated. Mark the first st of each rnd. 

With RS facing, join B with sl st in the end of any row on band.  

Rnd 1: Working in sides of rows, 50 sc evenly spaced around side edge of band. (50 sc)

Rnd 2: Sc in each st around.  

Begin carrying A. When working a st with B, work over the color A yarn. When working a  st with A, work over the color B yarn. Change colors as needed by using the new color to  complete the last “pull through” step of the previous st. 

Rnd 3: [Sc with B in next st, sc with A in next st] around. (25 sc with B, 25 sc with A)

Rnds 4-5: Sc with B in each st around. (50 sc with B) 

Rnds 6-11: Repeat rnds 3-5 twice 

Rnd 12: [Sc with B in next st, sc with A in next st] around, join with sl st to first st. (25 sc with B, 25 sc with A) 

Fasten off both colors, leaving a tail of B approximately 45 inches long.  Turn hat inside out.  

Sew long tail of B through each st of rnd 12 and pull tightly until opening measures about 3 inches in diameter.  

Turn hat RS out.  

Sew button to flap on band.

Once you've got your hat finished, you can continue the cozy train by choosing a scarf to make. If you've got a beautiful end result – and of course you do – show it off! We'd love to see it.
