Crochet hat patterns were the theme of my month, and February turned into a cozy little parade of color, texture, and intuition. I made a mix of crochet hats, loom‑knit pieces, and whimsical hoods, and each one taught me something new about silhouette, fit, and how different shapes work with my triangle‑shaped face. Below you’ll find my notes, photos, and the full list of crochet hat patterns I used, along with links to each designer’s original page.
Here’s everything that came off my hook and loom this month — the stories, the stitches, and the magic.
🐈 Crochet Festival Hood — Black, Pink & Purple Cat‑Ear Version (AstroKnotty)
Why I made it: A hood for me — a little goth, a little whimsical, and very “Angela.” The cat ears give it personality without tipping into costume territory.
What makes it special:
A shape that frames the face softly
Same cozy granny‑stitch base
Cat ears that add height and playfulness
A witchy, expressive color palette
Triangle‑face notes: The added height from the ears is ideal for triangle faces — it visually widens the forehead and balances the jawline. The side volume softens the lower face.

🌈 St. Paddy’s Crochet Rainbow Top Hat (Traverse Bay Crochet)
Why I made it: I wanted something bold and joyful — a hat with presence. The Rainbow Mist yarn turned it into a little prism of color.
What makes it special:
Lightweight despite the dramatic silhouette
A structured crown that holds its shape
A crisp brim that isn’t stiff
Works beautifully in self‑striping yarns
Triangle‑face notes: Top hats are one of the strongest silhouettes for triangle faces. The height and structure visually widen the forehead and draw attention upward, balancing the jawline beautifully.

🍄 Hedge Witch Hat (Morale Fiber)
Why I made it: I wanted something witchy but soft — a hat with personality, drape, and woodland energy.
What makes it special:
Works in almost any yarn
Morale Fiber’s iconic spiral brim
A crown that shapes itself naturally
The perfect mix of structure and slouch
Triangle‑face notes: If the brim angles slightly upward, it adds lift at the forehead and balances the jawline. The tall crown is especially flattering for triangle proportions.

🧢 Easy Crochet Slouchy Beanie with Brim — My “Learning Moment”
Why I made it: I wanted a quick, satisfying make with a little structure at the front.
What makes it special:
Great for beginners
Fast, rhythmic stitching
A cute little brim
Triangle‑face notes: This one didn’t work for me — and that’s worth documenting. The slouch was so deep that the widest part of the hat ended at my shoulders, which emphasized my chin instead of balancing it. For triangle faces, slouch works best when the volume sits higher on the head, not behind the shoulders.

🌼 Spring Hat (Suvi’s Crochet)
Why I made it: I wanted something light and sunny — a hat that feels like the first warm day after winter.
What makes it special:
Blocks into a crisp, elegant silhouette
A wide, gently tapered brim
An oval‑shaped crown worked in a continuous spiral
Cotton fingering weight yarn held double for structure
A separate sewn‑on band for a polished finish
Triangle‑face notes: The upward‑angled brim adds width at the top of the face and draws attention upward, which balances a wider jawline. It’s one of the most flattering brimmed hats for triangle proportions.

🎨 Crochet Parisienne Beret (Sewrella)
Why I made it: I wanted something classic and chic — a little vintage, a little modern.
What makes it special:
Works in neutrals or bold colors
Perfect beret drape
A structured band that stays put
Elegant without being fussy
Triangle‑face notes: Berets are ideal for triangle faces. Wearing it slightly back or angled adds width at the top and draws the eye upward, balancing the jawline beautifully.

❤️ Red Loom‑Knit Warm Hearts Hat (Your Original Pattern)
Why I made it: A joyful, intuitive make — simple loom knitting that turned into something unexpectedly charming. The red yarn and soft shaping gave it a personality all its own.
What makes it special:
Your own original pattern — a true signature Angela make
Smooth, even loom‑knit fabric
A gentle taper that creates a whimsical crown
Two strands of Cherry Red yarn held together for warmth
A clean, comfortable everyday fit
Triangle‑face notes: The slight height at the crown draws the eye upward, balancing the jawline. The soft, rounded silhouette adds width near the top of the head without collapsing toward the cheeks. The bright color also pulls attention upward.

What I Learned This Month
This month taught me how dramatically different silhouettes interact with a triangle face shape. Height, crown structure, and upward angles are my best friends. Downward brims and deep slouch need more intention — or a different wearer entirely. I also rediscovered how much I love documenting the story behind each make, even the ones that don’t work.
