Boys‘ Winter Crochet Earflap Hat Video Tutorial12


In this video, I will be showing you how to crochet a warm and cozy earflap hat for boys. This hat is perfect for keeping your little one's head and ears warm during the winter months. It is made with soft, bulky yarn and features a ribbed brim and earflaps that can be folded up or down for extra warmth. The hat is also adjustable, so it will grow with your child.

Materials* 1 skein of bulky weight yarn (I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick in Gray Heather)
* Size H (5.00mm) crochet hook
* Yarn needle
* Scissors

PatternBrim:
1. Make a magic ring (or chain 4 and join with a slip stitch).
2. Chain 1, then work 10 single crochet (sc) stitches into the ring. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the first sc stitch.
3. Chain 1, then work 2 sc into each sc around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the first sc stitch.
4. Repeat Step 3 for a total of 4 rounds.
5. Fasten off and weave in any loose ends.
Earflap:
1. Join the yarn to the back loop of any sc stitch on the brim.
2. Chain 3, then work 15 sc into the back loops of the brim stitches. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the first sc stitch.
3. Chain 1, then work 2 sc into each sc around. Join with a slip stitch to the top of the first sc stitch.
4. Fasten off and weave in any loose ends.
5. Repeat Steps 1-4 to make the second earflap.
Assembly:
1. Fold the brim in half and sew the two sides together.
2. Fold each earflap in half and sew the two sides together.
3. Sew the earflaps to the brim, positioning them on either side of the hat.

Tips* To make the hat larger, add more rounds to the brim.
* To make the hat smaller, decrease the number of rounds in the brim.
* To make the earflaps longer, add more rows to the earflap pattern.
* To make the earflaps shorter, decrease the number of rows in the earflap pattern.
* If you don't have a magic ring, you can start by chaining 4 and joining with a slip stitch. Then, work 10 sc stitches into the ring and join with a slip stitch to the top of the first sc stitch.

FinishingOnce you have assembled the hat, you can add any embellishments you like. I added a pompom to the top of the hat, but you could also add buttons, tassels, or other decorations. You can also use the hat as a base for other designs, such as adding animal ears or appliqués.

ConclusionThis boys' winter crochet earflap hat is a quick and easy project that is perfect for beginners. It is a great way to use up leftover yarn and keep your little one warm during the winter months. I hope you enjoy making this hat as much as I did!
