Crochet Velvet Slouchy Beanie Free Pattern

I really enjoy velvet yarn because it’s fancy and different. The yarn is pretty on it’s own so you can create something simple and it will still be really nice! That’s what I’ve done with this hat. It’s the perfect, basic slouchy beanie, but it’s made with velvet so it’s a little fancy!

Also, have you ever noticed how warm velvet yarn is?! Yea! :D It’ll be really nice for these coming winter months!

I designed this hat in 3 different sizes (I’m wearing a medium in the photos) so you can find the perfect fit for you!

This pattern completes my collection of velvet hat patterns. In case you missed it, I also have a Velvet Cloche and a Velvet Slouchy Hat (if you prefer more of a beret style slouchy).

Also, don’t miss my tips for crocheting with velvet yarn! It’s a little different so I shared my a few things to make it easier to work with.

    1. Thank you! :) I personally have not but a couple of my pattern testers did and it worked out well. You just need to check your gauge to make sure it’s the same size.
