Twisted Messy Bun Hat Crochet Pattern

This post contains affiliate links. If you make a purchase using these links I may receive compensation (at no added cost to you.)

This is a FREE crochet pattern from my Twisted Head Gear Line. This line of Head Gear will be Unisex patterns. I know what you are thinking “A messy bun hat for Men?!?” Yes, absolutely! Any Men with long hair can wear this and any of the crochet patterns in my Twisted Head Gear Line. I have designed 5 so far and the next 6 are in production (in my head lol)!

I have made a Video Tutorial that goes along with this pattern. You can find my Video Tutorial for the Tween or Adult Small Messy Bun Hat at my YouTube Channel. There are 3 Video Tutorials for this hat. R1-R4 are available below.

This hat would also be good for chronic pain sufferers or those with Scoliosis to do. It is not a very long pattern and it would give those who deal with chronic pain from Scoliosis, like me, a feeling of accomplishment. Crocheting is a Great tool to use if you suffer from Anxiety, Depression, OCD, and Chronic Pain. It really helps me keep my mind off of pain and it leaves me with a sense that I can still be productive.

3 Crochet Hat Patterns Designs by me, Jo

In today’s post I’d like to share some of my Handmade Crocheted Creations and 3 Crochet Hat Pattern Designs by me, Jo. I have been testing patterns for other Crocheters these last couple of weeks. I wanted to see how other Crochet designers created their patterns. I learned a lot crocheting for them and really enjoyed my time creating their Crocheted Creations.

I have 3 Crocheted Hat Patterns in my Etsy Shop and here on my website. The first one is called Mint Julep Hat Pattern. In this hat pattern I used the crochet technique of going behind the chain stitch or bump as you Single or Double Crochet. In this technique you get a unique raised stitch that really stands out. You can view this stitch across the rim and the crown of the Mint Julep Messy Bun Hat below.

I also added the technique of going behind the bump in the stitch across the crown and rim of my Purple Waves Hat Pattern. I really like this technique because of the texture it adds to the hat. You can really see the ‘waves’ across the whole hat and especially the rim. I also went in the back loops of the stitches made, adding more texture to the ‘waves.’ Check it out below.

The last pattern, is called the Spiral Messy Bun Hat Pattern here. The Spiral Stitch I used is where you keep crocheting around, not worrying about slip stitching in the first stitch of the round. You can see this technique in the pictures below.

Please check out 1 or more of the 3 Crochet Hat Patterns Designs by me, Jo. I would LOVE to see your version of my Handmade Crocheted Creations! As a Scoliosis Survivor or Chronic Pain Sufferer, these patterns would be something you could do and feel a GREAT sense of accomplishment because the patterns are so fast and easy to make.

Taking Care of Your Crocheted Cover Ups

[sc name=”Amazon”]

In today’s post I want to talk to you about taking care of your Crocheted Cover Ups. When taking care of your crocheted cover ups you should know that when using yarn most of them need to be washed specially. Cotton yarn and Acrylic yarn are some of the most washable friendly yarns, but if you want your handmade crocheted creations to last, you should take special care in how to do it.

I myself wash ALL of my handmade crocheted creations on the Delicate Cycle. I never throw them in the dryer, I like to air dry them. When air drying I like to add liquid fabric softner to my wash cycle. By doing this it ensures the material is still nice and soft when you go to wear it. It also smells GREAT depending on which liquid fabric softner you use.

This is where Amazon Prime comes in. By taking advantage of their Prime Membership you can purchase things like Downy and Tide to take special care of your Handmade Crocheted Creations. Plus you get 2 days shipping! How COOL is that?! Click on the Amazon image below and start saving today!

BUT the coolest thing….you don’t have to wait until July 16th or 17th! You can start today and take advantage of the great deals they have going on now that are leading up to Amazon Prime Day!

If you sign up for membership now here are some of the special bonuses you will receive…..
