The Berries Jubilee Hat is a cozy and stylish crochet project that works up quickly with just one skein of yarn. Designed to match the Berries Jubilee Infinity Scarf, this hat features soft texture, plenty of warmth, and comes in sizes from toddler to adult. It’s a great choice for gifts or to add to your own winter wardrobe.
One Skein Berries Jubilee Hat Pattern
Let’s make it a set! I recently shared the free pattern for the Berries Jubilee Infinity Scarf, and my daughter loved it so much she claimed it right away. Although it was designed for adults, she wears it constantly — and because it’s an infinity scarf, it actually stays on while she’s out playing. I had one more skein of Red Heart With Love in Plum Jam, so I worked up a matching hat for her. I’ve included multiple sizes for you too, so you can make one that fits perfectly. Best of all, it’s a one-skein project.

Notes
- You will be crocheting this hat in the round. To hide the joins on the ‘increase rounds’ you will be working a slip stitch into the first dc of the round. This will position the slip stitch immediately above the initial ch 3 that was worked and mimic the appearance of the double crochet stitches. We will be working into the slip stitches as stitches after R1. In this way we will ‘hide’ the joins a bit and make the top of the hat neat and tidy.
- Shell: 5 dc in one st
- Beg Ch 5 counts as 1 dc and ch 2.
- Sl st does not count as a stitch in the row end count but you will be working into it as a stitch when indicated
- Initial ch 3 counts as a dc in the row end count
- Stitch Multiple of 6

Hi Magda, Thank you so much for catching the mistake!! I’ve updated it to reflect 3. All the best, Rhondda
On Round 5 is an error: It should be 1 dc in each of the 3(three) sts.
Hi Marlene, The scarf pattern is here: https://oombawkadesigncrochet.com/2016/10/berries-jubilee-infinity-scarf.html
Have fun! Rhondda
Is the scarf available? I don’t see the pattern. Just get started. I can follow the gay pattern if I can just get it started.
Hi Jean, the numbers in square brackets at the end are the stitch counts for the round/row. So that round has 9 double crochets, 18 chain 2 and 9 single crochets. Hope this helps! Rhondda
In process of making Berries Jubilee Hat for Toddler/Small Child. R7 has stopped me. I do not understand the 9dc, 18 ch2, 9sc at the end. I am in hopes you can better explain.
