Assembly / Finishing

Fasten off, leaving a long tail for sewing. Using a yarn needle, weave the tail through the top of each stitch of the last round. Pull tightly to close the top of the beanie, forming the crown. Secure with a few stitches. Weave in all remaining ends.

Tips

  • To adjust the size of the beanie, you can add or subtract stitches in your starting chain (ensure the number remains even for potential brim patterns), and add or subtract rounds for height.
  • Use a stitch marker to keep track of the beginning of each round, especially if you are a beginner.
  • Crocheting a gauge swatch is highly recommended to ensure your beanie turns out the correct size.
  • For a ribbed brim, consider working the first few rounds in back loop only single crochet.
