Crocheted Melt the Ice Hat for Beginners

PLEASE SEE MY ETSY LINK, THANKS! The Melt the ICE Hat is a beginner-friendly ribbed crochet beanie designed as a cause-driven project that connects craft with personal expression. This pattern is worked from a simple ribbed rectangle, seamed and shaped in the round, making it approachable for confident beginners while still producing a polished, modern finish. The pattern includes step-by-step written instructions, multiple sizing options (child, teen/small adult, and adult), and troubleshooting tips to help ensure a comfortable fit. The hat works up quickly in worsted-weight yarn and is ideal for a weekend project, a meaningful handmade gift, or everyday wear.
