(Shown in Deborah Norville Everyday Soft Oak Moss & I Love This Yarn Orange Neon)
This is a great basic beanie pattern for men using hdc's. At the end of the pattern you can choose to add additional rows if you want a hat with a folded edge or if you would like a slouchy hat. I highly recommend the Deborah Norville Everyday Soft or I Love This Yarn (worsted weight) for this project.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
