Free Crochet Hat Pattern- Edgewater Hat

The Edgewater Hat uses the same great stitch combo as the Edgewater Sweater Dress to create an amazingly textured hat!

It’s a simple and fast project using a light worsted (#4) weight yarn of your choice!

For the sample pictured in this post I used Hobbii Yarn’s Tweed Delight. This yarn is so soft, squishy, and warm! This yarn is 85% wool, 10% acrylic, and 5% viscose. It comes in a large variety of colors! I love the softness and the stitch texture it provides.

Some other light worsted yarns that I love are Lion Brand Jeans yarn, Lion Brand Nuboo, and WeCrochet Swish Worsted.

The pattern comes in infant sizes through adult sizes, so you can make one for every member of the family!
