Pretty Pink Messy Bun Hat Crochet Pattern

If you’re looking for a fun and feminine project, the pretty pink messy bun hat is just that.

This crochet messy bun hat is sweet and simple, and fun to work on.

The ponytail beanie has a hole in the top for your updo hairstyle. It also has a decorative ribbing around the bottom of the hat.

The hat is made using the wattle stitch which adds a nice texture. And thanks to the sugar bush bold yarn, it adds great stitch definition too.

Sugar Bush bold is a soft 100% merino wool yarn. It’s great for working up hats and accessories and even stuffed animals.

It’s the perfect comforting choice for this hat project.

It’s a great way to stay warm without hiding your gorgeous hair under a stuffy hat.
