There is a long and wonderful history of knitters and crocheters sharing their love with others by using their needles and hooks. Whether you are making preemie or infant hats, child or adult chemo hats, caps for the wounded or injured military, or hats for the homeless and those going through hard times, you’ll find options on these pages. We have put this collection of hat patterns together to help you find patterns that can be made for your current charity.

At the end of this book, we’ve included some of the many worthwhile charities that accept hats and distribute them to those in need.

Winter Blast Hat When the air chills the bones, the warmth of this comfy crochet hat will be appreciated. This easy

to wear style is perfect for charity giving.

Directions are for size Small. Changes for size Large are in parentheses

Finished Circumference: 20 (22)” (51 (56) cm)Finished Height: 11” (28 cm)

Special TechniqueAdjustable-ring = Wrap yarn into a ring, ensuring that the tail falls behind the working yarn. Grip ring and tail between middle finger and thumb. Insert hook through center of ring, yarn over (with working yarn) and draw up a loop. Work stitches of first round in the ring. After the first round of stitches is worked, pull gently on tail to tighten ring.

Notes1. Hat is worked in rounds beginning at top of hat. Sections

of single crochet are alternated with sections of a texture pattern created with half double crochet and slip stitches. In single crochet sections, the last stitch of each round is joined to the first stitch with a slip stitch. In texture pattern sections, only the first and last rounds are joined. Pay careful attention to instructions to know when to join and when not.

2. The texture pattern is created by working half double crochet stitches into the slip stitches and slip stitches into the half double crochet stitches of the previous round. When working increase rounds not all half double crochet stitches are worked into slip stitches and not all slip stitches are worked into half double crochet stitches, but half double crochet stitches are always alternated with slip stitches.

3. Only turn rounds when instructed to do so. Single crochet sections are worked with right side facing, and texture pattern sections are worked with wrong side facing.
