The Sable Beanie crochet pattern is an easy crochet hat that is perfect for men and women!

Not too long ago I published a free tutorial for the Sable Stitch crochet pattern. Immediately after learning this stitch I just knew that I had to design a hat using it!

I love the textured lines in this stitch. They are not too thick and have a little stretch to them which makes for a perfect beanie!

Materials for the Sable Beanie crochet pattern:

There are many different kinds of yarn that one can use to crochet a hat for babies and children. For my sample pieces which you will see in the photos and video tutorial below I used a super soft 100% acrylic yarn called Heartland by Lion Brand. It is a worsted or medium weight yarn. Feel free to switch it up, including the fibre! I also enjoy working my crochet hats in a wool blend.

For a crochet hook, to work this crochet pattern you will need a 5 mm (H/8). In the video tutorial below you will see me using a Birchwood crochet hook by Rowan.

PDF Copies of this pattern are also available:

This crochet pattern will be written out in full below followed by a free video tutorial.  The pattern is free to follow on my site and will always be free! If, however, you would like a printable copy, you may purchase one from my Etsy and Ravelry Shops linked below:

Row 1: Sl st in the 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across.  Ch 1, turn.  (9 sl sts)

Row 2: Working in the blo, sl st in each st across.  Ch 1, turn.  (9 sl sts)

Continue to repeat row 2 until work from the beginning measures approximately 16-17 inches.

Do not fasten off, but fold brim of hat so that two shorter ends meet. Now working through both thicknesses, sl st across working through the blo on each side. Do not fasten off.  Turn work right side out (so that the right side is facing you and the slip stitch seam is on the inside).
