Free Easy Textured Crochet Hat Pattern- The Lorelai Beanie


Hi there friends! If you have been following my crafting journey on Instagram (for awhile!) you might have seen this beauty on my feed! I created this pattern in the Fall of 2017, and it has become one of my best selling patterns! My goal this year is to bring my previous patterns to the blog for FREE! Exciting news right?! So what better pattern to start off with then one of my favorites, The Lorelai Beanie!


Yes this beanie was 100% named after the lead role in Gilmore Girls. Fun Fact: I didn’t watch Gilmore Girls until it was on Netflix around 2015. I instantly fell in love with the show and the characters and I knew I had to name a pattern after the fast-talking, coffee drinking Lorelai Gilmore 🙂

Don’t have time to make one now? No worries, Pin it for later!!

Materials:

5 mm H hook 

Size 4 medium worsted weight yarn. (Approximately 190/200 yards of yarn) 

Measuring tape 

Scissors 

Yarn needle 

Stitches used:

SC (single crochet)

Ch (chain)

Sl St (slip stitch)

DC2TG- (Double Crochet 2 Together)

SC2TG (single crochet 2 together)

FRTRC (Front Post Treble Crochet) *If you need help with this stitch refer to my how to tutorial HERE


Brim Instructions

Row 2- Ch 1, HDC in every st the BACK LOOPS ONLY (6 HDC) 

Rows 3-36 Repeat Row 2 until the length of your brim is 20 inches (lay flat, and do NOT stretch when measuring the length!) 

Once your brim is 20 inches, Sl St both ends together. 

Rotate hat to now work in the round: Ch 1, HDC as evenly as possible around the top of the brim. Sl St to the beginning sc. (71 HDC) 

Body of the Beanie Instructions:
