Granny Squares & Stripes Bucket Hat
Crochet Pattern (PDF)
Crochet Bucket hats have become a real trend lately!! So why not crochet one for yourself? This pattern will show you exactly how to crochet a granny square bucket hat one step at a time.
Materials Needed
Some classic Aran yarn (4 colors of your choice). Any yarn would do really, just make sure it’s not hairy or fuzzy and that they are all similar weight yarns. I used Paintbox Yarns for this crochet bucket hat.
(Summer Garden by Kate Eastwood). The colors include:
-
- Blush Pink (353) – Color A
- Raspberry Pink (343) – Color B
- Ballet Pink (352) – Color C
- Lime Green (328) – Color D
- Vanilla Cream (307) (did not use this color from this set for this project)
- Crochet hook that fits your yarn. Generally I use between a size US G-6 / 4mm to US H-8 / 5mm hook. For this project I used a US Size 7 / 4.5 mm hook.
- A tapestry needle
- A pair of scissors
- Stitch markers, hair pins or some contrasting snippets of yarn

Crochet Bucket Hat Measurements
I made this bucket hat for my 6-year old daughter. Here are the measurements for this sized hat:
– Top of hat (hat crown circle diameter) = 6″ (15 cm)
– Each Granny Square size = 3.5″ (9 cm) x 5 Granny Squares = 17.5″ (44.5cm)
– Total hat circumference = 19″ (47.5 cm)
– Hat side length (from top of crown to top of ears = 6.7″ (17cm)
To check what size hat you are making, multiply the diameter of your beginning circle by 3.14.
