Sharing is caring!

The Matteo Crochet Beanie pattern is full of texture and includes sizes for the whole family. This top down crochet hat is an eye catcher.

Snug fitting and warm, everyone needs a go to crochet hat like the Matteo Beanie. It makes a fabulous gift for men, women and kids too.

I’m excited to share the Matteo Beanie crochet pattern with you in all sizes from baby 0 – 3 months through large adult!

This fitted beanie has been a favorite for men to wear, so I knew everyone else would love it too.

The texture of the Matteo Beanie is achieved with alternating front post double crochets and double crochets. You will work a dc into a fpdc and a fpdc into a dc.

I’ve marked this one as an intermediate skill level because you do need to know how to place post stitches. That’s not to say an adventurous beginner can’t do this pattern-you can!

Here’s a little pic of my red head modeling the toddler size Matteo Beanie.

I think I need to add a pom!

Materials

  • 75-200 yds #4 med worsted weight yarn, I used Lion Brand’s Heartland* in Joshua Tree for the dark green one.
  • 5.5 mm hook* US Size I-9, or hook needed to meet gauge.
  • Yarn needle
  • Measuring tape
  • Scissors

Notes

  1. Ch 3 counts as a stitch, I highly recommend using a ch 3 alternative.
  2. Beanie is worked top down, with dc stitches only until the crown circle measurement is reached for each size.
  3. Then you will alternate fpdc and dc around. In the following round, you will fpdc into a dc and dc into a fpdc. 
  4. Begin with a magic circle, or chain 3 and join with a slip stitch and work in the hole.

  1. HI There ,
    If i wanted to make this into a messy bun beanie are you able to modify the adult pattern for this.

  2. Hi Michelle,
    If you would like to make this beanie a messy bun hat then I would recommend starting with an open circle of 36 sts. You would Fdc 36, or ch 38 + dc in the 2nd ch and each ch across, then sl st to join into a circle. This would make the bun opening in the top of the hat. From there you would pick up the pattern from Rnd 4 and on. I hope this helps, let me know how it works out, if you try it!

  3. Hi Christa, this pattern looks beautiful! I’m just having trouble working out where to place my alternating dc/fpdc – at first I just worked into every post and stitch but it doubled my stitch count – oops! Do you have a tutorial please? Thanks!
