The Garnet Beanie Crochet Pattern uses a variation of half double crochet and slip stitches to create this stretchy, textured, and knit-like ribbing.
This hat is the 8th pattern in the Crochet Along for a Cause. We are making 1 hat per week to donate to a cancer center, school, or homeless shelter for 12 weeks. There’s always time to join! You can find all the details and hat patterns HERE.

Can I use a worsted weight yarn without wool, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I use mainly Premier Worsted acrylic weight anti-pilling yarn. Many people have a sensitivity to wool (including myself), so I use acrylic yarn when I am making things for charity. Acrylic is also easy to machine wash and dry.
Nancy,Thank you I appreciate you letting me know
