Easy Crochet Beanie Pattern | Free Crochet Patterns

I have no problem to confessing my love of crochet beanies! They are very quick to make, practical and can be very pretty too!

This free easy crochet beanie bag pattern is a quick and easy crochet project that will allow you to make a crochet hat for all the family from those newest editions through to those blessed with a larger head.

You only need one simple stitch to complete this whole hat – Half Double Crochet (UK – Half Treble Crochet) and you can start your project with either an adjustable ring (magic ring) or with a chain 4 – the choice is yours!

Plus, you can make this pattern with any yarn you have to hand! Head on over and download your printable Crochet Hat Size Guide, so you can check the size your hat will come out – whatever yarn you are using!

This pattern is written using LoveCrafts Aran yarn so will work with pretty much any aran or worsted yarn, but I would recommend checking the circumference as you make the hat. 

If you’re ready to get making your very own crochet shopping bag, grab your yarn cake and your 5mm crochet hook and lets get started!
