Basic Crochet Beanie - Verde Pattern

Overview

This pattern will guide you on how to create a cozy and stylish crochet beanie. Ideal for beginners who want to take their crochet skills to the next level or experienced crafters looking for a quick project.

Materials

• 1 skein (100m/3.5 oz) of worsted weight yarn (10ply/ medium 4). We suggest using a soft wool blend for warmth and comfort.
• US size H/8 (5.0MM); UK size 6; Metric size 5.0MM crochet hook
• Yarn needle
• Stitch markers

Instructions

1. Create a slipknot and place it on your hook. Chain 3.
2. In the third chain from your hook, make 10 double crochets (dc).
3. Join with a slipstitch in the top of the initial three chains. You should have a small circle.
4. Chain 2. In the same stitch, make 2 dc. Make two dc in each stitch around. Join with a slipstitch in the initial two chains (20).
5. Chain 2. *2dc in next stitch, dc in next stitch*. Repeat from * around. Join with a slipstitch in the initial two chains (30).
6. Continue to increase rounds, adding stitches to each round, until the beanie fits securely around your head.
7. When your hat reaches the desired size, dc in each stitch around until the hat reaches your desired length.
8. Cut your yarn, leaving a long tail. Thread the tail through your yarn needle and weave in all ends.
