Another free crochet beanie pattern for you! This one is a soft and chunky beanie with a form fit for a standard sized adult female. Made in one flat rectangle piece with just one stitch, joining the sides to form the hat at the end.
This is one of my favourites as it works up so quickly in the chunky yarn, so much so I decided to make a matching cowl that you find the pattern for here. It’s super beginner friendly as we’ll be using just one stitch, a double crochet.
I think this would make a great unisex beanie crochet pattern as it’s fuss free and this grey would be great on anyone, with the room to use the pom pom to add a pop of colour! I had to keep the first one I made as I added a white faux fur pom to it and I could hardly let that go could I..
