How to Crochet a Slouchy Beanie Tutorial – Knit-Like Alternating Colors
How to crochet a beanie with alternating colors? In this tutorial, I walk you through how to crochet this knit-like beanie. This pattern switches between two different colors to create this quick to crochet beanie. I suggest using a solid color for Color A and a multi-colored yarn for Color B to give it a similar look to this one.

How to crochet this multi-colored knit-like beanie:
Crochet Hook: F / 5 / 3.75MM
Yarn Size: 4 Medium
BRIM:
Row 1: Using Color A, attach yarn to crochet hook, CH 7, turn (7 total st).
Row 2: SL in BACK BUMP of each st across, CH 1, turn (7 total st).
Rows: SL in Back Loop Only (BLO) of each st across, CH 1, turn (7 total st).
Repeat Row 3 until brim stretches around head. I crocheted this one to 14 inches.
Attach edges by lining the edges together (I like to make sure that my current st and the tail from the 1st row are on opposite sides before I crochet the edges together). Place SL the stitches together by inserting the hook in the Front Loop Only of the row closest to you, and the Back Loop Only of the row furthest from you and pulling through both loops for a SL. Repeat for all 7 stitches.
