How to Crochet a Beanie – Day 47 – DIY Crochet Colorful Beanie Tutorial
How to crochet a beanie? In this tutorial, I show you how to crochet a beanie that is extra warm and comfy, using a few simple stitches. This beanie works quickly and shouldn’t take you more than 1 hour to complete. The colors used in this pattern can easily be exchanged to fit whatever color scheme you like. If you don’t want to use random colors, you can always make a pattern by switching out the same colors over and over.
