Simple Slouch or Pom Pom Beanie Hat Crochet Pattern

I have a confession to make.

I’m certifiably obsessed with making hats.  But can you blame me?  They’re SO much fun to crochet and they make great, handmade gifts.

You really can’t go wrong.  

Right now, I’m obsessed with this classic gem.  It’s a traditional style pom pom hat, and it’s giving me all the winter feels.

The pom pom is a cute addition to what is otherwise a classic beanie pattern.  Feel free to leave off the pom pom for a different look, but between you and I, I think the pom pom gives it a little something extra.

But that’s not everything…if you don’t turn up the brim of the hat, it becomes a gorgeous slouchie hat.

This makes a great holiday gift and it’s very simple to make, only taking a few hours, so crocheting multiple hats will be a breeze.

Make it in a solid color if you’d like to stick to the three color combo used in the pattern.
