The Flurry Pop Beanie is a one ball wonder using only one skein of Lion Brand’s Hometown USA superbulky yarn for the Teen/Adult size beanie, and even less for all the littles. I love the option of adding those puff stitches as color pops too. It’s a great way to really make the puffs pop. This beanie works up fast, color changes or not. It looks amazing when you add your favorite pom to the top of the hat! I added a faux fur pom pom in purple.

Flurry Pop Beanie is a fast, stripe-ready crochet hat worked top down in the round on a US 13 / 9 mm hook with super bulky yarn. With gauge at 2 double crochets per inch, this is a true quick-finish project: multiple sizes from 3 months through Teen/Adult mean you can crochet the whole family a matching set in a single sitting.

Construction and Technique

• Worked top down, in the round with no brim seam to sew
• Double crochet throughout; the large hook and super bulky yarn create a plush, lofty fabric
• Stripe colorwork is worked by switching colors between rounds, no tapestry or carry technique required
• Textured fabric emerges naturally from the stitch structure
• Easy skill level: chain, magic ring, double crochet, and basic increases

Materials

• Hometown (Lion Brand), super bulky weight; 35-81 yards depending on size
• US Size 13 / 9 mm crochet hook
• Tapestry needle for weaving ends

Sizing

• 5 sizes: 3 months, Toddler (1-3), Child, Teen, Adult
• Top-down shaping fits each size with clean proportions

What’s Included

• Complete written pattern in English with size-specific instructions

Hometown’s chunky, cozy construction is made for this kind of pattern: bold stripes, quick rounds, satisfying results. Make one in school colors, holiday colors, or a simple two-tone pop. Flurry Pop Beanie is the hat pattern to reach for when you need a handmade gift fast and want it to actually look great.
