The Ever Hopeful Beanie was designed for the 2026 Crochet Cancer Challenge. Made with a simple side to side construction in turned rows using beginner friendly stitches, this slightly slouchy beanie is easy to make again and again. It’s perfect for making and donating to your favorite cancer survivor or organization, and with a meditative 4-row repeat, it allows you to add your strength, love, and support into every stitch.

In the spirit of the Crochet Cancer Challenge, $1 from each Ever Hopeful pattern sale will be donated to Cancer Support Community Delaware to support their programs for cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers.

This pattern is written in ENGLISH using US terminology and has been tested by others.
