Plaid seems to be a classic fabric pattern for fall and winter. Whether it’s on a pair of soft flannel pajamas or a cozy beanie, these little squares have stood the test of time. An easy beginning crochet pattern, this hat is worked flat and then sewn up the sides and top. The sizes given can easily be adapted for a longer or shorter hat. I have included tips on switching the colors as well as estimated yardage for each color and hat size. Would you rather have a 2 toned check or a kaleidoscope of colors? As always, I encourage you to be creative, so feel free to work as little or as many colors into your plaid masterpieces as you wish.
