Chunky Pixie Hat Free Crochet Pattern (3-24m)

Now that the weather has started to cool down, I knew I wanted to make some cute pixie hats for my children to wear, and some to sell at market. I love these hats, especially for babies and toddlers because they are not as easy for them to get off and don’t fall off as easily as beanies, so I knew those little ears would be kept toasty and warm.

To make your own you will need about 50g of chunky yarn, I used Stylecraft Special Chunky, a 8mm crochet hook, some scissors, a 20mm button and a yarn needle. A fluffy pom pom is optional but adorable.

I crochet quite tightly so you may need to play around with hook sizes to get the required hat size. My finished hat is 6.5” wide and 7.5” tall which means you need a starting rectangle of around 14” x 6.5”.

Chunky Pixie Hat (3-24m)

Main:

  • 1. ch35, dc in 3rd ch from hook and across (33)
  • 2-9. ch2, turn, dc in st at base of ch and across (33)

Reversible Beanie Hat (Crochet Pattern)

Am I the only one who gets absolutely freezing in the slightest bit of cold weather and really needs something to keep me as warm as possible outside? I made this hat to help keep my family toasty and warm this winter, and it is lovely and thick and cosy so it really does keep those little (and big) ears warm. It’s an added bonus that the hat can be made different colours on the inside and the outside, giving two different looks in one hat.

The reversible beanie hat pattern is sized to fit newborn to adult, and is made using double knit yarn. To make this pattern, you will need between 50g and 100g double knit yarn, a tape measure, a pair of scissors and a yarn needle. Each size uses a different crochet hook, varying from 3.5mm to 4.5mm. If you would like to know which crochet hook is required for your particular size, feel free to message me and I will check for you before you buy.

This pattern is written using American terminology, and is suitable for beginners. Basic knowledge of crochet is expected, but photo instructions are provided for some stitches.

This pattern is now available in my Etsy shop, along with my other PDF crochet patterns and a few things I have handmade to sell. I would love for you to join us in my Facebook group to see more pictures, get feedback and ask any questions you may have.

Child’s Bow Tie (Free Crochet Pattern)

We have a family party coming up this month and I wanted to make my son a little bow tie to wear over his shirt, to make him look a little smarter. I adore the bow tie and shirt trend, especially on children, so this is definitely not a new look for him. He has several different colours of bow tie but none that matched with the specific shirt I wanted him to wear. As I was making the bow tie, I decided to write the pattern down for you all so you could make your own if you wanted to.

To make your own child’s crochet bow tie, you will need a 4mm hook, double knit or light worsted yarn and a small button. This size of bow tie fits my 4 year old son well. It can easily be made to fit smaller or larger children, by adding or removing rows from the neck strap. This pattern is written using American terminology.

Child’s Bow Tie (Free Crochet Pattern)

Bow:

1. ch8, dc in 3rd chain from hook and across (6)

2-16. ch2, turn, dc in same stitch as chain and across (6)

17. ch1, fold in half, sc around, working through both edges to close, join with slst in top of 1st sc, bind off and weave in ends

Neck Strap:

1. ch5, dc in 3rd chain from hook and across (3)

2-26. ch2, turn, dc in same stitch as chain and across (3)

27. ch1, turn, sc in same stitch as chain, ch1, skip 1 stitch, sc in last stitch

28. ch1, turn, sc in same stitch as chain, sc in chain space, sc in last stitch, bind off and weave in ends (3)

Bow Centre:

1. ch5, dc in 3rd chain from hook and across (3)

2-4. ch2, turn, dc in same stitch as chain and across (3)

5. bind off, leaving a long tail to join

Finishing:

1. take the main bow piece and gather the very centre with a piece of matching yarn, tie it off tightly to give the bow a nice shape and weave the ends in

2. lay the gathered bow on top of the neck strap and cover with the bow centre, stitch the two pieces of bow centre together, using the long tail that you left, with the bow and neck strap neatly inside, bind off and weave in ends

3. attach a small button to the end of the neck strap without the buttonhole

Toddler Hoodie (Crochet Pattern)

I released my Baby Bear Hoodie pattern a few months ago, and since then I have been working on a toddler version of that pattern. As I am a perfectionist and currently test all of my patterns myself, this has taken me longer than I would care to admit. I have had quite a few requests for larger sizes and I am delighted to now be able to say that I have finally finished the Toddler Bear Hoodie pattern! This pattern is for sizes 1-2y, 2-3y and 3-4y, or from around 20″-22″ chest. The pattern has been made with around 5″ of ease included, to allow for layering. The hoodie can be made without the bear ears, but I think they add an extra touch of cute.

The hoodie is made using two strands of double knit yarn held together throughout, with 5mm and 6mm crochet hooks. The pattern is easy to follow and is suitable for beginners, although basic knowledge of crochet is needed. I have written the pattern using US terminology.

You can find the toddler hoodie pattern in my Etsy shop, alongside my other PDF patterns and a few things I have crocheted and are ready made for sale. The baby sized version of this pattern is available here, and for a combined pattern to fit from newborn to 4 years, click here.

Braided Pixie Hat (Free Crochet Pattern)

Is it even possible for a child to wear a pixie hat and not look the cutest they’ve ever looked? This pixie hat will keep little ears warm and can be tied to make sure it won’t fall off (or be pulled off).

This pattern should be suitable for beginners.

This pattern was originally for 3-10 years, but I decided to add instructions to make the hat to fit 0-1 years aswell. You can easily size up or down as needed to get the look and fit you want.

I crochet quite tightly so you may need to play around with hook sizes to get the required hat size. My finished 0-1y hat is 6.5” wide and 7.5” tall and the finished 3-10y hat is 8.5″ wide and 9″ tall. That means you need a starting rectangle of around 14” x 6.5” for 0-1 years and 17″ x 8.5″ for 3-10 years.

To make your own braided pixie hat, you will need double knit yarn in the colour of your choice. You will also need a 4mm (0-1y) or 6mm (3-10y) crochet hook, a tape measure, a pair of scissors and a yarn needle.

Braided Pixie Hat (Free Crochet Pattern)

Main:

  • 1. ch62, hdc in 3rd ch from hook and across (60)
  • 2-21. ch2, turn, hdc in st at base of ch and across (60)
  • 22. fold in half lengthwise to make a bonnet shape, slip stitch the back together then bind off and turn the seam to the inside of the hat

Neck:

  • 1. with wrong side facing, join yarn in bottom corner st, ch1, sc in same st and each row across (42)
  • 2. ch1, turn, *sc in next 2sts, sc2tog*, repeat from *-* across to last 2sts, sc in last 2sts (32)
  • 3-4. ch1, turn, sc across (32)
  • 5. do not ch or turn, work a second sc in corner st, *sc in next st, sc2tog*, repeat from *-* across front to end, sc in same space as first st on neck, join with slst to first st on neck, bind off and weave in all ends

Braids:

  1. cut 12 lengths of yarn measuring 25-30″ each
  2. find the corner of the hat, at the front, and thread the 12 lengths through, hanging half of the length either side of the hole, so you end up with 24 strands of yarn
  3. braid the strands together in groups of 8
  4. tie off with a knot at the bottom and trim the ends
  5. repeat on the other side of the hat
