Houndstooth Beanie

Houndstooth Beanie
"Houndstooth is interesting; it's warm and mysterious like a cabin in the woods. It feels comforting somehow and reminds me of Sherlock Holmes. It's not quite checked, but it has the same duotone look without being as serious as the straight lines of checked designs. This crochet houndstooth beanie is super simple to do and only uses single and double crochets, so it's a great beginner project. It's usually done in black and white, but I switched out the white for red to make it a little less harsh and add color."
