Best Yarn for Crochet Hats
To crochet these beanie hat patterns, you'll need some yarn. The crochet hat patterns in this list use a range of yarn weights, from fingering weight to super-bulky weight yarn.
When shopping for yarn, I like to look for soft acrylic yarn or washable wool-blend yarn. Some of my favorite acrylic yarns are Brava Worsted yarn and Mighty Stitch yarn. And some of my favorite wool yarns are Swish Worsted and Wool of the Andes Worsted.
If you prefect to order yarn online, I can recommend two suppliers: crochet.com and lionbrand.com.
My Favorite Crochet Hooks
And, of course, you'll need a crochet hook. My favorite crochet hooks are ergonomic crochet hooks from Clover. They are suitable for beginners, are very easy to use.
I also love these beautiful wooden crochet hooks from Furls. I find them very comfortable and easy to work with!

How to Measure for Crochet Hat Patterns
Are you giving a crochet hat or beanie as a gift? You'll need to know what size to make before you start crocheting.
If at all possible, it's best to measure the circumference of the intended recipient's head. Then, you can reference the pattern to figure out what size to make.
Depending on the pattern, you may be able to adjust the length or "slouchiness" of your beanie.
For more sizing information, please read the crochet hat size chart below. (This chart references the Craft Yarn Council's industry guidelines for pattern designers.)

|---|---|
| Preemie | 9–12 in (23–30.5 cm) |
