Free Beanie Patterns
Free crochet and knitting beanie patterns — quick, giftable, and beginner-friendly. HoneyBee catalogs free beanie, toque, and slouchy-hat patterns, each linking to its free source. A beanie is the perfect one-skein weekend project: most take 100–200 yards of worsted or bulky yarn and a couple of hours once you know the basic stitches. Filter by craft, difficulty, and yarn weight to match your yarn. Chunky bulky beanies work up in an evening; ribbed and cabled designs give a snugger, more polished look. Every pattern shows the designer and community ratings, and many include sizing from newborn to adult. Browse the highest-rated free beanie patterns below.
