This gender-neutral crochet hat is part of the Christmas in July make-along with Marie from UndergroundCrafter. I am so glad to work with her again, she is such an awesome team player.

Vst Gender-Neutral Hat Crochet Pattern

The v-stitch crochet hat is designed more like a scull cap, so there’s lots of room to customize it. It is an easy pattern to make, with a brim that makes it an eye-catching accessory depending on the colours you use. It can easily be styled into a beret, a slouch hat or pulled down over the ears, (see customization notes for that).

Looking for a v-stitch hat that is more like a beanie? Check out this v-stitch beanie that comes in nine sizes.

CUSTOMIZE

You can easily customize this crochet hat by making a few more rounds than stated in the pattern, before going on to trimming. The adult hat in this pattern reaches the top to mid ear depending on how it is worn.

You can also make the hat slouchy, it is all preference.
