Here are two more crochet designs for Winter 2017/2018 these designs are part of my ARROW Heads Collection.
For the men in your life, I chose a simple beanie design with an insertion of the arrow stitch. ARROW Winter Hat is the perfect winter warmer beanie, it's made using a chunky yarn for extra warmth and it has an optional cotton lining for comfort.
The pattern sizing is for adult large heads, (like my darlings), and will fit a 23in (58cm) head circumference, it is also long enough to cover his ears and protect them from the cold wind. If you wish to make smaller sizes you can easily adjust the sizing and decrease the length.
ARROW Hat is made with a yarn I have not used before, Stylecraft Life Chunky. I decided to give this yarn a try firstly because my darling loved the colour, Teal (2416), unfortunately, the colour teal does not show up in the photos. I like the fact it is a lovely blend of 75% acrylic and 25% superwash wool and comes in 100g balls, which simply equates to value for money. You only need 1 x 100g ball of Life Chunky to make this hat and only 1 x 100g ball of Cottonsoft DK for the optional lining.

ARROW Hat Crochet Pattern
is available from my online shops
For the women in your life, I designed a headband based totally on using just the arrow stitch. ARROW Headband is simply perfect for keeping your ears warm while outdoors, I chose a chunky yarn for extra warmth and comfort and the easy arrow stitch pattern gives you a great looking headband.
The pattern sizing is for adult medium heads, (like mine), and will fit a 22in (56cm) head circumference, and the width of 4in (10cm) is easily wide enough to cover my ears and keep them warm and cosy. If you wish to make headbands for smaller heads, it is very easy to adjust the length.
To make the ARROW Headband I dug out a lovely chunky yarn from my stash of yarns. Wendy Mode Chunky is a soft blend of 50% premium acrylic and 50% Merino wool and is ever so comfy to wear, and it also comes in 100g balls. You can make two (2) headbands from 1 x ball of yarn, and still have some left over.
