This easy crochet hat pattern is worked seamlessly from the crown down in a soft, simple stitch — no seams, no sewing, and nothing scratchy against the skin. The Soft Heart Beanie hugs your head gently and fits beautifully, which makes it a wonderful chemo cap as well as an everyday hat for anyone who wants something soft and comfortable.

Written in 6 sizes from preemie all the way to adult, this beanie works up quickly and is easy enough for a confident beginner. Make one for someone you love, or crochet a batch for chemo care packages, hospital donations, and charity drives. The pom pom is completely optional — leave it off for a smooth, low-profile hat.
