The Everyday Crochet Ribbed Beanie

There is a reason ribbed beanies are an absolute classic. They are incredibly stretchy, wonderfully thick, and have a timeless style that looks great on absolutely everyone. Whether you are crocheting a quick gift, prepping inventory for your next craft market, or just treating yourself to a cozy new accessory, the Crochet Ribbed Beanie is the pattern you will find yourself making again and again.

This hat is worked completely flat as a simple rectangle. No working in the round, no complicated crown decreases, and no stressful counting. Once your rectangle is done, you simply seam the sides and gather the top! It's that easy to whip up.

By working the Half Double Crochet stitches only into the back loops only, we create deep, bouncy ridges that perfectly mimic a classic knit rib. It’s thick, incredibly squishy, and holds its shape beautifully.

4. Yarn over and pull up a loop. You will have 3 loops on the hook.
