My Brother’s Beanie Tutorial

"My Brother’s beanie crochet pattern is a new take on the classic ribbed beanie hat. Using a unique but simple construction method it avoids all that extra bulk around the crown which so many hat patterns feature. The tutorial includes written instructions and a step by step photo tutorial. The pattern uses just one skein (or less) of aran or worsted weight yarn and the size is easy to adjust to fit. This pattern is the perfect project for those last minute gifts for your brother or anyone else - the pom pom is optional!"
