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

Discover the perfect blend of style and warmth with the Edgewater Hat crochet pattern. This easy-to-follow pattern features a unique texture that adds a touch of elegance to any winter outfit. Designed to be both functional and fashionable, this crochet hat pattern is suitable for beginners and experienced crocheters alike.

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

Yarn for a Crochet Hat

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.

Pattern Details

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

It is worked from the bottom up, starting with the brim.

This crochet hat uses very basic stitches, including single crochet and double crochet. You will need to know how to work in the back loop only (blo) and front loop only (flo). Check out the video stitch tutorial below to learn how to do it!

  1. Does anyone know of a good resource on better instructions on finishing the hat and adding the pom? I can’t figure out how to fasten off the end and finish the pom. Otherwise really nice pattern – just sad I got all the way to the end and can’t finish it.
