Sloane Hat – crochet pattern release!

Today’s the day!

Slouchy Striped beanie pattern  (77 of 125)

The Sloane Hat crochet pattern is now available!

Add to Cart

Woot!

It comes in sizes baby to adult large, and it’s perfect for a boy or a girl.

edit4Which is why I named it the Sloane Hat…since Sloane works for a girl or a boy. I also wanted to name all of our children Sloane…but got vetoed. So, I’m settling for giving the name to one of my patterns. 😉

Slouchy Striped beanie pattern  (98 of 125)The Sloane Hat is a pattern for beginners.

There are a couple of fairly tricky stitches, but I provide full color, step by step photos on how to complete each one. Some of my testers were beginners, and they said they learned a lot and that it was totally doable.

edit-003Plus it’s only $5!

So you’ll have more budget to spend on yummy yarns. 🙂

Depending on your skill level, one hat takes 1-2 afternoons. There are a lot of repeating rows. So, once you get the hang of it, it’s a great project to keep your hands busy while you watch a movie.

You can also choose your slouch. The adult sizes come super slouchy (as pictured) with easy instructions for a less slouchy version.

    I love the pattern! I fell in love with crochet lately and your series and Anneliese from Aesthetic Nest have inspired me a lot! I am glad you included step by step photos, a hat seems a bit more difficult than a cowl ;-). Off to buy it!

        Delia,
        I’m on my third Sloane hat and I just love it! The pattern is easy to follow and has a nice rhythm to it. (The second and third ones I started out with FSC and it worked beautifully-no need for worrying about crocheting that foundation row loose enough). Thanks again for the pattern.

    Hi! I’m new to crocheting. Where did you buy this yarn from and where is the best place to buy supplies? Thank you for your help!

      Hi Jaime!

      You can find decent yarn almost anywhere. If you want the really high quality stuff, I would check out a yarn shop. I actually got this Caron Simply Soft yarn from Walmart. For hooks I usually buy Boyd metal hooks from Jo-Ann. There are wooden ones and plastic ones too. I prefer the metal ones, but try different ones and decide which ones you like best. I hope that helps! Have fun!

    I’m trying to get the right gauge. I’ve already went as far down as a G hook crocheting tighter than normal, and the 4sc & 5 row is coming up at 1.25″ square
    Using Loops & Thread in a 4 (medium weight)

    Reply
    • Delia says

      October 23, 2015 at 10:35 AM

      Hi Fiona,

      Sorry about the gauge trouble! Okay, so yarn brands, even if they list the same weight, can vary. Crocheting technique also varies a lot, and I may just crochet much tighter than you (sorry about that!). I would either go down another hook size (if the yarn doesn’t slip off too much) or I would try to train myself to crochet tighter. If that doesn’t work, and you don’t mind switching yarns, you may try a thinner/lighter yarn in the same “weight” category. If you go squeeze a few skeins in the yarn section you’ll know what I mean. That sounds crazy….ha, but it’s true. I can’t remember for sure, but I think Loops and Threads medium weight might be on the thicker side. I hope that helps at all. Please feel free to email me: [email protected] if you have any more questions. <3

      I’m sorry Donna. I never said this one was free. Did someone else mislead you? I’m sorry if they did. I hate it when that happens. You may want to contact whoever told you that, and let them know. Chances are they were misinformed too.

      I do have a lot of other free patterns though. Here is a link to a list:
