How To Crochet a Hat With the Gradient Effect?
How pretty is the Ombre Moss Stitch Beanie?
I fell in love with the gradient effect it creates, thanks to the Drops BabyAlpaca yarn I used. The blend of baby alpaca wool and mulberry silk makes it irresistibly soft, smooth, and delicate.
The subtle shine and plush texture of the yarn bring this hat to life, ensuring both comfort and style.

Notes:
- The pattern uses US crochet terminology.
- Beanie is worked in rounds without cutting the yarn after each round.
- For more slouchier look (with more height), add more rounds to the body. To make the hat shorter, decrease the number of rounds in the body.
- The ribbed brim is formed by working single crochets in the back loops and can be adjusted.

PATTERN
Using 3,5mm hook start with a yarn A and then follow color diagram for each row.
Ch 122 and sl st in the first st to close the round.
You can also make any EVEN number of chain stitches to make your desire circumference, but changes might result in a different yardage requirement.
Be careful and join your starting chain without twisting.
Round 1: ch1 (doesn’t count as a sc), sc around in every ch, sl st in first sc to close the round.
Round 2: ch2 (doesn’t count as a sc and ch1), sc in 2nd st, [ch1, sk 1 sc, sc1 in next sc] –
rep […] until end of the round. Sl st under 2nd ch of the beginning ch2.
The last stitch should be a sc in the last chain
Round 3: ch2 (counts as a first sc and ch1), [sc in next ch-1 sp, ch1, sk 1 sc] – rep […] until end
of the round. Sl st to the first ch1 of the beginning ch2.
The last stitch should be a ch1.
Round 4: ch2 (doesn’t count as a sc and ch1), sc in first ch-1 sp, [ch1, sk 1st, sc in next ch-1 sp] – repe
at […] until end of the row. Sl st under 2nd ch of the beginning ch2.
The last stitch should be a sc in the last chain.
Round 5 – Round 51: Repet Row 3 – Row 4 according to the color diagram.
Fasten off yarn and weave in all ends.
Tip: You can avoid weaving in all those ends by not cutting the yarn when you finish a round. Simply carry the other color along the inside and pick it back up with your hook when you need to use it again.
To close up top of the hat I followed the technique as demonstrated in this VIDEO.
HAT BRIM
Use hook 2,5 mm.
Now we are going to add a ribbed brim to the body of the hat using color A.
With right side facing
Row 1: Pick any place on the edge of the hat and attach your yarn with a slip stitch. Work 11 chains, starting with 2nd chain from hook, work 1 single crochet in each chain back to edge of hat. Join to the next stitch of the edge of hat using slip stitch and work one more slip stitch in the next stitch of hat (2 slip stitches in total for joining) plus make one chain. Turn.
Row 2: Starting from 3 stitch from hook, work single crochet in back loop of each stitch across (10 back loop single crochet). Turn.
Row 3: chain 1 (does not count as a stitch), single crochet in back loop in each stitch across (10 stitches). Join to the next stitch of the edge of hat using slip stitch and work one more slip stitch in the next stitch of hat (2 slip stitches in total for joining) plus make one chain. Turn.
Repeat Row 2-3 until you reach beginning Row 1. Then join your last row with the first row using the slip stitches.
You can also make longer brim by adding extra chains.
