How to crochet the Christmas Tree Hat
It’s an easy pattern, because it’s mostly single crochet stitches with simple tapestry color changes. There’s no difficult increase or decrease, only simple stitches to form a crochet rectangle.
It’s worked in 1 piece, and seamed together at the end with whip stitches. You can choose to use slip stitches (sl st) instead of a needle to seam the short edges together.
Then the top of the hat is cinched together at the top to get closed.
Finally all you’ll need is to add a pom pom.

The Yarn
The crochet Christmas tree hat, a two color crochet pattern uses a lovely green with a contrasting cream color. It is made with the same yarn & tapestry technique as the Crochet Christmas hat & the Crochet Christmas Sweater.
The bulky weight yarn from We Are Knitters in the perfect thickness & color.
The Petite Wool is a high quality yarn that comes in a lot of great colors, but for this project I used Forest Green & Natural.
The yarn comes in skeins that are 100 g & 153 yards.
You can swap the yarn for a different yarn weight, such as worsted weight yarn, but then you need to use a smaller hook and make a larger size.

How Long Does It Take To Crochet That?
How long it takes to crochet something varies depending on your skill & how fast you crochet. But that isn’t a helpful answer is it?
Well, I’ve developed a yarn calculator to help you get the answer to this question.
It will help you calculate exactly how much time you’ll spend crocheting a project.
All you need to know is how much yarn you will use on the project in either meters, yards or skeins. Then crochet your test square & time it.

Reading Color Diagram
- On odd rows move yarn strands due to color changes on the wrong side, behind the work (furthest from yourself), on even rows keep yarn strands due to color changes in on the wrong side, in front of the work (closest to yourself).
- Please note, that odd rows are read from the right to the left, while even rows are read from the left to the right.
- Grey vertical lines are made to show sizes. Start counting the grey vertical lines from the right, where the first line is for size 12-18 months, the second for size 18-24 months and so on.
Change Colors
When changing from one color to another, you’ll never finish the stitch with the color you where working with.
Do all the steps of the stitch, then leave the last step unworked. Yarn over with the color for the next st & pull yarn through.
Repeat this every time you change colors to make the color changes look beautiful.
Change Color When The First & Second Stitch On A Row Has Different Colors
When the first & second stitch on a row has different colors, you should finish the last stitch on the previous row with the color for the first stitch on the next row.
Then you should do the first chain to start the row with the color for the second stitch on the row you are starting.
