I was thinking about what to donate to the From the Heart charity this month, when it occurred to me that I generally donate items for women or children. So, I decided it was time to design a hat with the “boys” in mind. Now don’t get me wrong, this will work equally well for the women, but let’s face it, we girls have lots more to choose from!
I really didn’t have a planned design in mind when I started, but as I began to crochet a basic beanie, the pattern evolved. I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out and wanted to share it with all of you. I hope you enjoy it. ~Maria~
