Brushstrokes Beanie
A free version is also available.
This simple crochet beanie pattern alternates rows of herringbone double crochet and single crochet to create a stitch pattern that slants like brushstrokes. This pattern is available in 10 sizes and matches the Brushstrokes Scarf pattern, which is available in 4 child and adult sizes. This pattern is part of the 2022 Hat of the Month Crochet Along with Oombawka Design Crochet and The Stitchin’ Mommy.
The 1-2 Years Size version of this pattern is available for FREE on my blog HERE.
The free version is supported by advertising on my website. The downloadable PDF for sale on Ravelry includes the full pattern in one printable file without advertisements.
