All of these hats use either chunky (#5) or super chunky (#6) yarn so they can be whipped up in no time. So, whether you need a last minute gift or simply want to pat yourself on the back for finishing a project in couple of hours (or less), then these hats will do the trick!
For each of the projects below, I list the pattern format as well as the recommended yarn. This allows you to see at a glance what you might be able to use from your stash.

Backcountry Beanie by Crystal @ ChristaCoDesign
There’s something so relaxing about working on a hat that doesn’t need increases or decreases, just rows of stitches. Not only is this beanie relaxing to work on but it also grows quickly due to the chunky yarn. Which has the added benefit of being warm and cozy!
