The holidays are fast approaching and I wanted to give you another fast crochet hat and scarf set pattern that can work up as a last minute gift. The Sherwood Set is a great pattern if you’re looking for an incredibly quick make and to use up some of that deliciously squishy chunky yarn I KNOW you have in your stash!

This Sherwood Set uses all my favorite simple stitches – Moss/Granite/Linen Stitch combined with Berry Stitch to create the faux bobble lines in the scarf and hat. The chunky yarn I used, which is Loops & Threads Charisma (a Cat 5 yarn) in the color Forest, makes this work up in just a few hours. This is an all-around simple project that can be completed in an evening.

I love this color but I can’t wait to make another set in White, I just think it will look so blissful and pure for my winter-wear. What color will you make it in?

PATTERN AND SIZING NOTES

– For this fast crochet hat and scarf set, you must have knowledge of: working in the BB of the foundation chain, single crochet, single crochet in the back loop (for hat ribbing), Moss Stitch (aka Granite Stitch, Linen Stitch) triple crochet, seaming. – The stitch used for the texture of this fast crochet hat and scarf set is the Berry Stitch, which is alternating SC and TC so that the SC pulls down the height of the TC and makes it pop out like a little faux bobble. – With the exception of the 1st and last rows on the scarf, and the 1st row of the body of the hat (which are in plain SC), and excepting the rows of Berry Stitch, the remainder of the body of the scarf and hat are done in Moss Stitch. – In order to make your TC pop out, you must pull the following SC quite tight. – The stitch count is given in parentheses ( ) at the end of each row. – All terms are in US / North American terms.

*** Turn your hat wrong side facing out and line up your seams.

*** Using a tapestry needle, weave the tail in an out of each ST across the top of the hat to cinch up the top.  You can secure this with a knot if you like, as we will continue using that tail to seam down the side.

*** Once you have cinched all the way around the top, continue with your tail and tapestry needle and seam (using a seam technique of your choice) along the side of the work and all the way down to the bottom of the ribbing. 

Affix a pom pom of your choosing.  I used a pre-made faux fur pom pom which affixes with a button so that you can remove it when you wash the hat.

Weave in all ends and VOILA, a cozy and hygge fast crochet hat and scarf set that works up lightening quick with chunky yarn!
