This granny square bucket hat pattern is a fantastic stash-busting project that uses lightweight DK yarn. It’s perfect for summer vacations, festivals, or matching family sets. The design includes six sizes ranging from newborns up to adults, so you can easily whip up a comfortable, structured hat for anyone.
The pattern uses simple stitches written in US terms and is backed by a step-by-step video tutorial, making it great for confident beginners.
