This Ribbed Unisex Crochet Beanie is perfect to make for any friend or family member who may need a hat this winter. It’s made to stretch and to be warm. I went for boho colors because they’ve always been one of my favorite color combinations, so I really enjoyed making this hat in many colors!

For this project you’ll need:
HOOK: 5 mm hook or size H hook for the US
YARN: I used worsted weight yarn, 4 ply US, 10 ply AU
Each Skein was – 100 grams / 3.5. oz or 210 meters / 230 yards
You can use scrap yarn for the strap because it really doesn’t take much yarn at all. But I recommend making sure you have most if not all of the skein of color you wish to use for your Main Color (MC)
For Beanie sizes
1-3 years stop increasing after round 4
for years 1-3 you should have 48 sts
4 years old to adults – size follow the pattern from start to end. You should have 60 sts
If making this hat for a man with a large head – then feel free to do one more row of increases. (DC in next 5 then inc) to bring you up to 72 sts.
I will be referring to my colors as
(MC) = Main Color
(SeC) = Second Color
and Strip Color
