Mens Crochet Hat Pattern, Bulky with no Hole

This mens crochet hat pattern is bulky with no holes. It will keep your special man’s head warm in northern climates. 

It is worked from the top down, increasing every row until Row 6. Measure the head and work the crown until you achieve the proper measurement. If you don’t have a head to measure, use the hat measurement chart to guide you.   

After the crown, the pattern continues with the set number of stitches to make the side of the hat.

You work the brim of the mens crochet hat pattern in single crochet. 

Skill Level is Advanced Beginner only because of the back and front posts. If you can handle this as a beginner, go for it.
