Cozy Linked Beanie

Description

If you fell in love with the stitch on my Soft Link Cowl, you are going to be absolutely thrilled to make this Cozy Linked Beanie to match! This lovely hat uses that same clever technique called the Linked Double Crochet, which connects your stitches to eliminate those breezy little gaps typical double crochets leave behind. Don’t worry if you’ve never made a hat before, we start right from a magic circle and work in continuous, seamless rounds, meaning you won’t have to struggle with any awkward row joins or ugly seams. As long as you keep your trusty stitch marker moving, you will find this a wonderfully rhythmic, comforting project that works up in just a few sittings.

This beanie is the ultimate staple for frosty morning walks, building snowmen with the grandkids, or running winter errands in style. Because it matches the cowl so perfectly, a paired set makes an exceptionally thoughtful, luxury-level gift for holidays, birthdays, or just a special surprise for someone you love. To finish it off beautifully, the pattern includes a unique twisted or reverse single crochet edging that gives it a wonderfully clean, professional trim.
