Ponytail Girls Hat

Posted on January 15, 2022

You probably have seen these ponytail hats or messy bun hats that people are sporting these days. I crocheted this ponytail girl’s hat for my granddaughter. I looked at a few patterns but didn’t see the size and style that I was exactly looking for. So I set out and created this hat and will share the pattern details below.

I will first say that my GD has very thick hair and so this opening is fairly wide at 3.75 inches. I did use the vertical stripe hat pattern for the basis of my ponytail hat.

I crocheted a chain of 25 to begin for hole for the ponytail and joined it to make a ring. Then I worked 33 double crochet (DC) around the chain ring and then followed the pattern of DCs for 6 rows. I then started working the front and back post DCs. Check your length before you finish off to make sure your hat is long enough.

My hat came out 18″ circumference by 6 inches long with a 3.75 inch ponytail opening. I will say that the hat is a bit short for my 12 year old GD and comes just over her ears. As this was a Christmas gift, I couldn’t know for sure until after Christmas. I may add another row or two for her to be able to wear this into the future as she grows.
