Free Pattern: Fall in love beanie

Several years ago, when my daughter got engaged, I made her and her fiance matching beanies. These “BF Beanies” have been super popular over the years. I think people really enjoy having a pattern that works great for men and women.

I recently designed a scarf for this year’s “Scarf of the month CAL” with The Stitchin Mommy and Oombawka Design Crochet that is great for men and women. My “Fall in Love Scarf” is fun and easy to make. This beanie is designed to match it.

The Supplies I Used

The Yarn: Premier Puzzle. Each skein has 328 yards. I LOVE all of the available colors. I chose “Kickball” because it was very “fall-ish”. All of the puzzle yarns have fun names of different games. The photo below is of my scarf wrapped in the yarn label.

Hat of the Month

This pattern is part of the 2025 Scarf and Hat of the Month cal with The Stitchin Mommy and Oombawka Design Crochet.

Pompom (optional): 

Cut a piece of matching yarn 12” long and set aside. This will be used to wrap around the middle of the pompom and sew the pompom to the hat. 

Spread your fingers apart and wrap the yarn around your fingers approximately 80 times. Carefully slide the loops off of your hand. Use the 12” piece of yarn to tie around the middle of the loops. Make sure this is as tight as possible. Cut the loops and trim the pompom as desired, making sure you do not cut the yarn you used to tie around the middle. 

With a crochet hook, pull the yarn tails through 2 different sts next to each other at the top center of the hat. From the inside of the hat, pull the yarn tails and tie a secure knot.
