The Criss-Cross Bucket Hat is a free, beginner-friendly crochet pattern for a summer bucket hat/sun hat.

The pattern provides details for five sizes - baby, child, teen, adult, and large adult.

Gauge: Using a H8/5 mm crochet hook and worsted weight cotton yarn, a magic ring with 8 HDC should measure 3/4 inch in diameter.

Materials:

• Cotton Worsted Weight Yarn – Make sure both your main color and contrast color are the same thickness.
• H8/5 mm Crochet Hook
• Scissors
• Yarn Needle

You will need about one full skein or half a cone of the main color and just a small amount of each of the contrasting colors of cotton yarn.
