    \n\n\n\n

    \ud83d\udccb Materials You\u2019ll Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    You don\u2019t need fancy supplies to get started. Here’s what you’ll need for this beginner beanie:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Yarn<\/strong>: One skein of medium-weight (Category 4) yarn like Red Heart Super Saver<\/em> or Caron Simply Soft<\/em>. Choose a soft yarn for comfort.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Crochet Hook<\/strong>: Size H\/8 (5.0 mm) or as recommended on your yarn label.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Scissors<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Yarn needle<\/strong>: For weaving in ends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Stitch marker<\/strong> (optional): Helpful for keeping track of rounds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      \n

      Tip:<\/strong> Lighter-colored yarn is easier to work with when you\u2019re learning, because you can see the stitches more clearly.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      \ud83d\udcda Basic Crochet Stitches You Need to Know<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      This easy beanie uses just two basic crochet techniques<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1. Chain (ch)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      This is how most crochet projects begin. It\u2019s the foundation row.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      2. Half Double Crochet (hdc)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      A step up from single crochet, this stitch is simple but creates a nice, stretchy texture for hats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Here\u2019s a quick refresher:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Yarn over<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Insert hook into stitch<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Yarn over again and pull through (you\u2019ll have 3 loops on the hook)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        \ud83c\udfaf Let\u2019s Get Started: The Easy Crochet Beanie Pattern<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        This beanie is worked from the top down in the round<\/strong>. That means you’ll start at the crown (top of the head) and increase as you go to fit the size you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        \ud83e\udde2 Basic Beanie Pattern (Adult Size)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Finished Length<\/strong>: About 8.5 inches from crown to brim<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

        \n\n\n\n

        \ud83d\udd04 Step 1: Start with a Magic Ring (or ch 4 and join to form a ring)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        Round 1: Ch 1, make 8 hdc into the ring. Join with a slip stitch to the first hdc. (8 stitches)\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n
        \u2b06\ufe0f Step 2: Increase Rounds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        Round 2: Ch 1, 2 hdc in each stitch around. Join. (16 stitches)\n\nRound 3: Ch 1, *1 hdc in next stitch, 2 hdc in next stitch*, repeat around. Join.

        \n\n\n\n

        \ud83e\udea1 Step 4: Finishing the Hat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        Once your beanie reaches the desired length:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Fasten off<\/strong> your yarn.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
