Charming Crochet Slouchy Hat Free Pattern (with Video Tutorial)

I have made a lot of knitting and crochet tutorial videos over the years. Of course, most of these are for my own designs. However, I’ve also had the opportunity to do tutorial videos for a diverse range of Red Heart/ Yarnspirations patterns by other designers. I love helping you learn how to make different things in this way. One of my most popular crochet tutorial videos is for the Red Heart Charming Crochet Slouchy Hat free pattern.

Crochet Slouchy Hat Video Tutorial

I’ll tell you all about the pattern below. However, if you’re already ready to dig in, here’s the video tutorial:

Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable Waves

This crochet slouchy hat free pattern calls for Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable Waves yarn. This is a really unique yarn. It’s from the Unforgettable family, of course, which is a popular yarn line. It has the same beautiful colorway magic that people have come to expect from this line. It’s soft and luscious with lovely drape, just like the original Unforgettable. You can still machine wash and dry this yarn. And it’s still a worsted weight yarn.

So, what makes it different from the regular Unforgettable? Unforgettable Waves is a Thick and Thin Yarn. So, although it’s worsted weight, some parts are thinner and some parts are thicker. This creates such a terrific texture as you work. It is absolutely perfect for a crochet slouchy hat free pattern, so I can absolutely see why designer Cristina Mershon chose this yarn.

You’ll crochet the brim of this hat in slip stitch rows. Then you’ll join the brim into a loop. From there, you’ll continue working up to the crown, crocheting in rounds. The body of the hat is worked in the easy, but effective, V-stitch, which showcases the thick and thin nature of the yarn perfectly. This hat is rich in both texture and color, making it a truly perfect accessory for dressing up a casual outfit. And since it’s a slouchy hat, it’s great for covering up a bad hair day.

You can see all that you need to see about the specific details of how to work the pattern in the video tutorial. It’s considered an easy level crochet pattern, and I’m confident that you can handle it!
