Easy Slouchy Crochet Beanie Pattern

October 29, 2017

This Easy Slouchy Crochet Beanie Pattern is true to its name… it’s both super slouchy and super easy. It fits loose and comfortably. Plus, this colorway is everything.

I had some of this gorgeous yarn leftover after making my COZIEST CROCHET CARDIGAN and I had to use it again. I love the  slight texture and the subtle color changes in this yarn. This hat uses only basic crochet stitches. Because of the touch of texture, there isn’t a need for any special stitches. This yarn is beautiful all on it’s own!

And can we just address how vicious that cactus looks behind me? Goodness! I actually did get some cactus in my shoe while we were photographing this hat. I was warned not to wear Crocs this far out in our back yard. Of course, I didn’t listen. Of course, I got cactus in my foot. #lifeinthedesert

    1. Hi! Sew the ends together with a single crochet. Insert your hook into the top loops of the last row and the bottom of the first row. Then work a single crochet all the way across. I hope this helps!!
