Nestlynn Easy Crochet beanie Pattern is an adorable beanie that works up very quickly. It is, as the name suggests, a cozy and warm and a comfort hat that you will reach for again and again and are likely to want to make for the whole family.

Construction:
The beanie is worked sideways. The main beanie and brim are worked together. The two sides are then joined and the top closed. It is designed in a weight 4 aran yarn and single crochet cluster stitches. It can be made with a foldable brim which can be unfolded if you want a slouchy or as a regular beanie. The pattern carries instructions for both ways.

Yarn: 51g/ 169g = 84y/278y (for foldable beanie. For non foldable beanie, less yarn will be needed). Also, the yarn I have used is a relatively dense one so, the amount of yarn I have used is high. The testers who have used yarns like Caron cake #4 and Red heart #4, have had to use less yarn.
