Spring Mesh Slouchy Beanie

Spring Mesh Slouchy Beanie

There are times on a cool night, or a crisp spring day, when a hat is needed, but not a bulky winter hat. Here is an easy mesh pattern for you to quickly whip up your very own. My niece is helping to model the hat. 


Please do not post this pattern on your website or take it as your own. I ask that you instead link to my page, which will help with internet karma. Mainly yours. Of course you can sell anything you make from this pattern. Let’s be honest, I really can’t stop you can I? :)

Stitches used:

DC – Double Crochet

Chain Stitch

FPDC – Front Post Double Crochet

BPDC – Back Post Double Crochet

Materials:

I and H hook

Tapestry needle

Stitch marker (optional)

Worsted Weight yarn or yarn of your choice
