Chicago Blackhawks Hat - Free Crochet Pattern

Show off your team spirit this winter with this Chicago Blackhawks inspired hat. It features an optional playoff beard!


You can purchase an ad free PDF pattern in my Esty shop.

This hat was requested by my dad in 2013. Hawks fever was wild in Chicago because the Stanley Cup was within reach and the Blackhawks were unstoppable.

In true playoff fashion, the men were growing their playoff beards. All but my dad.

My dad has never been able to grow a full beard. He’s been cursed with the patchy beard and my mom does not approve. He’s always joked that it’s the price he must pay for a full head of hair.

The request really started as just a joke. He asked me if I could make him a Blackhawks hat with an optional playoff beard. The idea was just too good to pass up.

The hat design is inspired by the Chicago Blackhawks logo. It features the team colors and the Blackhawks feathers. The “playoff beard” is attached by buttons and is removable.

The Chicago Blackhawks did in fact win the Stanley Cup in 2013 and 2015.
