How to Crochet a Simple Beanie

how to crochet a simple beanie, beanies, hats, photo tutorial,


Simply Perfect Beanie

In 2001 I designed this simple beanie for my grown-up children, who were in their 20's at the time, and living in the sub-tropics of Australia, where it doesn't really get very cold in winter, but when the wet weather and strong winds blow, in those cool morning and evening temperatures you definitely need to keep your head and ears warm. That is how this simple beanie crocheted totally in one stitch was born.

PIXIE BABE... SIMPLY PERFECT

crochet patterns, how to crochet, pixie, elf, baby hats, newborn,


Best Ever Crochet Baby Hat



In 2004, I designed a simple and easy pixie baby hat, and it made a big hit at my market stalls in Northern Rivers, NSW, Australia and Spitalfields, London, UK. To date, PIXIE BABE has been the most admired and best seller baby hat for newborns and toddlers. It has given me, family, friends and customers much pleasure over the years. And TODAY, I have decided it is time to share this delightful crochet pattern with the world, and I hope you enjoy making, gifting and using this simple pixie hat.

PATTERN DETAILS:

Description:
A simply perfect crochet pattern for a pixie hat. Make this hat for newborn, toddler or young ones – this pattern is so easy it can be adapted to varying head sizes and different yarns and hook sizes. Have some fun and play with the colours and create your own style of pixie hat!

Yarn:
PIXIE BABE HAT PATTERN is EASY and YOU can make it using any yarn. My favourite yarns for this hat are: Bendigo Cotton 4ply or 8ply (my preference for newborns), 3ply or 4ply baby wool OR my other favourite yarn for winter babies Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK OR Rowan Belle Organic DK.

YOU CAN ALSO make the pixie hat using bamboo yarn, cotton/silk blend and cotton/cashmere blend.

Over the last eight (8) years, I have made hundreds of pixie hats from this pattern; it is so simple and so easy to adjust to different yarns and different hook sizes.  May you enjoy playing with it as much as I have.

BABY PIXIE HATS for a New Year

crochet patterns, how to crochet, baby hats, pom pom hats, pixie, elf, newborn,


HAPPY NEW YEAR Crochet Baby Hats



Here is my first crochet hat pattern for 2012.  I designed the hat in late 2011, however with all the festive celebrations and family gatherings and New Year, it has been sitting on the back burner waiting for the final day of release.

This crochet pattern is a colourful little pixie hat for your little one, with a super cute "baby safe" pom pom on top.  It is crochet in single crochet and ever so easy.  Make any size you like starting from newborn to toddler, child to adult.  There are Hints on size adjustment in the pattern.

I made this POM POM baby hat with James C. Brett Pure Merino DK, which is ever so soft and delicate, the perfect little warmer for those cold winter days.  I used a 4.5mm hook for this hat even though the yarn label recommends a 4mm hook, because the elasticity of the yarn is quite strong, and I am sure you could easily use a 5mm hook and still get a good looking hat.

Perfect Crochet Hat CHRISTMAS SANTA ELF LONG TAIL

crochet patterns, how to crochet, baby hats, long tail, pixie, elf, santa, newborn,

HERE IT IS
 THE PERFECT CROCHET HAT PATTERN 
FOR THE LONG TAIL and SHORT TAIL ELF


LOLLIPOP is the name of this crochet hat pattern, so-called, because I made the pink long tail first and I thought it looked just like a lollipop!

You can make this hat with organic cotton yarn or organic wool/cotton blends.


crochet patterns, how to crochet, baby hats, long tail, santa, elf, pixie, newborn,


For the long tail pink, blue, and Santa hats I used Bendigo Cotton 8ply which you can also find available in smaller balls under the brand name of Heirloom Cotton 8ply.

The green elf hat I made using Rowan Belle Organic Wool Cotton DK for the main colour (body of hat) and James C. Brett Pure Merino DK for the contrasting texture, pom pom and brim of the hat.


YARN SUBSTITUTES

You can use whatever yarn you wish, once you reach the right head circumference for whatever size you are making, continue without increasing. To match the sizing in the pattern always check the YARNSUB website for best match.
