When creating my Leaving Winter Behind Chunky Beanie Adult Size Crochet Pattern a hat to match my Leaving Winter Behind Chunky Cowl Crochet Pattern. I wanted to make a hat which had a beautiful simple pattern with a unique look. This beanie was crocheted with two different colors. The colors I used are by Lion Brand Yarns in the colorways Kale and Licorice. In the pattern, there will be a Color A and a Color B. For the beanie sample used in this pattern, Color A is the Kale and Color B is the Licorice.The beanie can be customized to be crocheted in one color or as many colors as you want. This beanie is worked in a spiral, so I use a stitch marker to mark the last stitch of each round. Let me know in the comment’s below or message me on Instagram if you want the pattern in a different size.
