Explanation: Need a last minute gift? Just learned how to crochet? Snowstorm blowing in? Whatever your situation, this extremely easy crochet beanie’s got you covered. It’s worked flat in a rectangle and then seamed to form a hat, making it a super speedy, mindless project to whip up in less time than it takes to watch a movie. Supplies: • Lion Brand Wool-Ease Tonal (Weight: 5/ bulky - 124 yds, 4 oz) – 2 skeins

- Colors pictured: Smoke (635-149) and Slate Blue (635-107) • Tapestry needle • Size L (8 mm) crochet hook • Stitch markers or safety pins • Fur pom pom or pom pom maker/small piece of cardboard Sizes: S: Young teen (approx. 18” circumference, unstretched M: Most women and men (approx. 20” circumference unstretched) L: Larger heads (approx. 22” circumference unstretched) Gauge: 10 stitches = 4” just over 4 rows = 4” Abbreviations and Glossary (US Terms): ch – chain dcblo – double crochet through the back loop only tch – turning chain st – stitch sk - skip RS – right side WS – wrong side rep – repeat

Overall Pattern Notes: • Pattern is written in size S with M and L written in parenthesis. S (M/L)

BEANIE

Notes: • Hat is worked back and forth in rows. These rows will become the vertical ribs

on the beanie. • The ch 3 at the beginning of each row doesn’t count as a st. • To adjust pattern to fit a child, chain fewer stitches at the beginning and work

fewer total rows. • After Row 1, the double crochet stitches are worked only under the back loop

of the stitch from the previous row. This is always the loop farthest away from you, regardless of which side of the crocheting is facing you.

Foundation Row: Ch 37. Row 1: 1 dc in the fourth ch from the hook and each ch to end of row; turn. (34) Row 2: Ch 3, dcblo in each dc to end of row; turn. (34) Rep Row 2 16 (18, 20) more times to create a total of 18 (20,22) rows. Fasten off, leaving a 24” tail. Rectangle dimensions should be approximately: S: 18” x 14.5" M: 20” x 14.5" L: 22” x 14.5"

SEAMING RECTANGLE Notes:

• To determine the RS and WS of your fabric: If you’re right handed, the tail of your final row should be on the bottom left when the WS is facing. If you’re left handed, the tail of your final row should be on the top left with the WS is facing. (See Photo B for example.)

• To best disguise the join, seam is worked only through the chain stitches and the loop of each dc st that is closest to the seam. (See Photo D.)

Lay rectangle horizontally with WS facing up. Use stitch markers or safety pins to pin seam if desired. Thread tapestry needle with tail from fastening off. Work from the top of dc st into top of corresponding ch. Then work from bottom of next ch into the bottom of the next corresponding dc. Continue like this through the top of one dc to the top of one ch and then through the bottom of one ch and the bottom of one dc. Repeat until end of seam. Tie a simple sewing knot by inserting needle in crochet fabric to create a loop of yarn, then inserting needle through loop of yarn and pulling tight. This will prevent seam from puckering in next step. Do not trim yarn.

CLOSING TOP

Using tapestry needle and strand of yarn leftover from previous seam, whip stitch around the top of the hat, working one whip stitch into each row. Tighten circle as much as possible and use tapestry needle to sew up any remaining opening in top of hat.

ATTACHING POM POM

Create a pom pom with a large pom pom maker or 2.5” piece of cardboard. See a step-by-step pom pom tutorial here: https://makeanddocrew.com/how-to-make-a-pom-pom/ Use tail leftover from seam to sew fur or yarn pom pom to hat. Fasten off and weave in any remaining ends. Pop your new one hour beanie on your head and get to work on making one for everyone you know!
