DIY Crochet Beanie – Day 20 – Small Sized Funky Crochet Beanie Tutorial

How to crochet a beanie?  In this tutorial, I show you how to crochet a beanie that is a little funky and on the small side.  This beanie works quickly and shouldn’t take you more than 2 hours to complete.  The colors used in this pattern can easily be exchanged to fit whatever color scheme you like.  Because of its relatively small size, this would be a great beanie for someone with a small head, or a teenager.
