Crochet hats

A crochet hat, made by hand and sized for real heads, not a one-size guess. Tap through for sizes, brim measurements and more photos.

How to choose a crochet hat

The rainbow wizard hat comes in two sizes: 2 to 5 years with a 48 cm brim, and 5 to 9 years with a 58 cm brim. If your child is between sizes, measure head circumference where you can and size up if unsure.

It's worked in soft acrylic yarn, warm enough for actual winter wear. At about 100 g, it's light enough for all-day wear, indoors or out. The pointed peak and star appliqué double it as a costume piece long after the cold snap passes, useful for dress-up days.

Buying as a gift, the size options mean you can go by age instead of guessing a headband size, and the bright rainbow stripes are easy to spot on a crowded playground. Hand wash or machine wash on a cool cycle at 40°C or below, wash separately from dark colours, and reshape while damp. Expect a little stitch variation between hats since each one is crocheted individually.
