Easy Crochet Striped Beanie

This is the perfect class to follow our Learner’s Permit to Crochet class. This is a basic, top-down, double crochet beanie that you can customize with your favorite colors. Please come on in and choose 3 colors of Cascade 128 Superwash so you can stripe your hat and make a contrasting brim. (You’ll have leftover yarn to make another hat too!) The Chunky Striped Beanie pattern has a child’s size and several adult sizes to choose from.

Amanda will teach the magic circle, increasing stitches to create a flat circle, crocheting in joined rounds with changing colors, basic hat sizing, front loop/back loop crochet stitches and adding ribbing.

Supplies: Cascade 128 Superwash (samples are in 3 colors: #822 Pumpkin, #871 White and # 1959 Deep Sapphire), 5.0mm/H hook hook, 6.0mm/J hook, tape measure, tapestry needle, scissors.

Homework or Additional Info: HW: Measure the head circumference (around where the brim of a beanie will fall) of the person you are going to make this for.
