The Thimble Beanie
"Tunisian crochet creates a thicker fabric than most regular crochet stitches, so this beanie is going to be perfect for keeping heads warm all winter. It also uses a larger hook, so your hat works up quickly! The pattern is written for 2 sizes, approximately child and adult, with fitted or slouchy options. It is easily adjustable to suit your preferred fit! The brim is worked first, then the body is worked in rows. It is seamed up the back, cinched at the top, and topped with your favourite pom (or leave it as is if you’re not a pom person). The unique texture that Tunisian crochet creates makes this fashion forward hat stylish and warm!"
