Pink Friday Beanie
"This project is perfect for using up sock yarn and DK yarn scraps. You need about 200 yds of each weight to create the project. You will use both yarns as one, creating a worsted weight yarn. Use any sock yarn and DK weight yarn, just make sure the colors combine to create a nice look. I was thinking of how to use up both yarns when I started crocheting a hat without thinking twice. I adjusted the hat pattern I used so that you can follow along easier. I hope you like this project and hope to see yours!"
NotesIf you don't own any sock yarn and DK weight yarn, you can use any worsted to aran weight yarn. It will be better in a variegated, ombre, or multi-color yarn.
