Brook Beanie

The Brook Beanie is a crochet pattern for a beanie. This quick and cozy pattern is perfect for making hats to donate or gift. The hat works up fast in worsted weight yarn. I made the hat in a teal color for the Crochet Cancer Challenge 2025 to honor those fighting ovarian cancer. The pattern is in memory of my Mother-in-Law and Grandmother. The pattern includes written instructions using standard United States crochet terminology. It has been tech-edited and tested.
