Heart Showers Beanie

"This heart hat is full of color and contrast and neat, tidy rows… making it a real show stopper. Pattern includes lots of detailed step-by-step instructions with photos to make it as easy as possible! This heart hat pattern involves a unique stitch (the waistcoat stitch), combined with fair isle crochet (the technique of alternating colors without finishing off to create a design) and includes changing colors mid-stitch. But don't worry, lots of detailed step-by-step instructions with photos are included to make construction as easy as possible! Because it is totally worth the effort!"
