The Simple Cotton Cap
From the Blogger: “The Simple Cotton Cap is a crocheted beanie you can make with medium weight cotton yarn. The yarn I used is Bernat Handicrafter Cotton but you can easily substitute Lily Sugar ‘n Cream Yarn or Red Heart Creme de la Creme yarn. The written pattern instructions include options for two different beanie lengths. The mid-ear length beanie would be suitable for daily wear. The base-of-earlobe length is designed to provide coverage to the neckline for chemotherapy patients. If you would like a different overall length you can simply add, or remove repeat rounds in your specific sized hat to get the desired hat height.”

This is indeed a basic cap and would be very simple to make. I love using cotton yarns and try to use cotton on all my projects. If cotton isnt appropriate for the project then I have been using Red Heart With Love yarn because it is just a better quality yarn than the regular worsted weight yarn.

This is a great beginner project. I help people learn to crochet and this is going to be a really helpful pattern. It's very easy and well written. It won't take long and they will feel confident after finishing it. Thank you so much for sharing this project. I may even make up a few as gifts too!

I'm still a beginner crocheter and have been meaning to learn how to make a basic hat. This pattern looks perfect!
