Fortune’s Hat is a lace crochet beanie worked flat and in the round, combining two hook sizes to build an airy, open fabric that sits beautifully on teens and adults alike.

This intermediate-level pattern uses a dual-construction approach: the lace body is worked flat to create clean stitch definition across the openwork motifs, then seamed and finished in the round for a snug, shaped crown. The result is a one-piece hat with the visual drama of lace and a relaxed silhouette that suits a wide range of wearers.
