About the Construction

This beanie starts with a ribbed brim made from single crochet stitches worked in the back loop only. Once the brim is complete, it’s seamed to form a circle.

From there, the main body of the hat is worked using the Suzette stitch, which creates a thick, nubby texture that’s both warm and eye-catching. The stitch pattern is worked in stripes and turned rounds, helping the stitches stay neat and consistent all the way around.

The bulky yarn and large hook make this project fast, satisfying, and perfect for colder months.
