Malleable beanie

Also available [in the shop][1] and [on Payhip][2]. About the pattern ----------------- A simple and versatile beanie, with a very elastic brim. You can adapt this pattern to your preference, to be used as a slouchy beanie, a plain or folded up brim, or a snug fit. You choose your length from the beginning and then work to your desired circumference using short rows. If you want to, you can add tiling mosaic designs to the body, a different color for the brim, or even use a plain brim that you fold over. Working this sideways means that we make the most of the vertical elasticity of Tunisian crochet, which can lead to a snug fit and more comfort than when working vertically. It's great for keeping your ears warm in the cold weather if you use wool to make it. You can use up a skein of beautiful hand-dyed yarn or two-three balls of sock yarn. Skill level ----------- Intermediate in Tunisian crochet, due to working with short rows in a magic ring and ribbing made up of two types of stitches. Sizes ----- In the photos there is a table for head sizes and finished sizes. The sizes range between head sizes of 41 and 64 cm (between 16" and 25") with no ease or slight negative ease.
