The Camellia crochet hat pattern is a super simple and fun hat to whip up! It has a cozy texture and comes in 4 sizes from toddler to adult!

Pattern Inspiration

I came up with the idea for the Camellia Hat while I was crocheting a new Camellia Sweater for myself. The stitch combo used in the sweater is so simple and so cozy that I just wanted to create more with it!

At first I started it with a solid sc brim, which is the same as the sleeve trim in the sweater, but ultimately decided against it. I decided to go with a traditional ribbed brim instead. This brim looks so nice and stretches nicely as well.

I went with a faux fur pom to top it off, but this hat looks great without a pom too!

I also designed a Camellia Cowl crochet pattern to match the hat! It is free right here on the blog!

Pattern Details

This crochet hat is made using DK (#3) weight yarn. I used WeCrochet Swish DK for my samples pictured in this blog post, in the colorways Artic (light blue) and Delft Heather (dark blue).

Swish DK is 100% Fine Superwash Merino Wool and is so soft! It comes in over 40 beautiful colorways! This yarn can be both machine washed and dried. It is one of my favorite yarns!

The larger sizes take about a skein and a half of Swish DK to make, but you could easily get a hat out of just one skein of any yarn that has more than 225 yards (largest size hat requirement) in it.

Some other great yarn options for this crochet hat would be Mary Maxim Ultra Mellowspun DK, WeCrochet Brava Sport, or Paintbox Simply DK.

The Camellia crochet hat pattern comes with instructions for 4 sizes: toddler, child, teen/small adult, and adult. It has approximately 1″ of negative ease, but stretches to fit.

The pattern is rated Easy in pattern difficulty. All the stitches used are basic crochet stitches. There are a few decrease stitches as well.

The hat is worked from the bottom up, starting with the ribbing trim. From there you will work hat to the top and decrease the stitches to bring it all in. Then you will cinch the top shut and add a pom, if desired.

  1. Love the hat!! Thanks for offering the free PDF today. I am hoping you can reveal where you got the pom pom used and if it’s a snap on pom. I am still in the hunt for fluffy snap-on pom poms. Thank you!!

  2. Hi Michelle!
    I just have a question: I’m trying to make a pdf using PrintFriendly and I can’t. This is not the first time this happens with the website, even though I accepted the cookies. Can you help me with this please?
    Thanks so much in advance!

    1. I’m not sure what that is. But the pattern is available in pdf form on Ravelry, Etsy, and LoveCrafts. It shouldn’t be in pdf form anywhere else.
