This pattern creates a versatile, crocheted beanie suitable for all. It has raised ribs meeting at the top with a corded border to match. This pattern makes a beanie that fits most adult heads and has instructions on how to adapt it to smaller and larger sizes.

Clear and easy to follow instructions for beginner crocheters, it has versions with UK/Aus and US terminology that you can select on download.

This has been written for the super-soft Great Southern Yarn’s 8-ply (DK) merino wool and a 5.0 mm hook. You will get 3 beanies out of 200gm. It’s simple to make and is a great handmade gift, especially when made in GSY’s luscious merino.
