Step-by-Step Instructions

Creating the Beanie

1. Start with a Magic Ring: Create a magic ring and work 12 double crochets (dc) into the ring. Pull the tail to tighten the ring and join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the top of the first dc.
2. Begin the Beanie: Chain 3 (this counts as your first dc), then work 1 dc in each stitch around. Join with a sl st to the top of the chain 3.
3. Increase Rounds: Continue to work in rounds, increasing by 12 stitches each round until the circle measures 6 inches in diameter. To do this, in the next round, work 2 dc in the first stitch, then 1 dc in the next stitch, and repeat around. For the following round, work 2 dc in the first two stitches, then 1 dc in the next two stitches, and repeat. Keep increasing until you reach the desired diameter.
4. Body of the Hat: Once your circle measures 6 inches, work even in dc for 6 inches to form the body of the hat. This means you will simply work 1 dc in each stitch around without any increases.

Making the Flowers

1. Start with a Magic Ring: Create a magic ring and work 6 single crochets (sc) into the ring. Pull the tail to tighten the ring and join with a sl st to the first sc.
2. Create Petals: Chain 3, then work 2 dc in the same stitch. Slip stitch in the next stitch. Repeat this pattern around to form the petals of the flower. You should have 6 petals total.

Assembling the Beanie

1. Attach Flowers: Using a yarn needle and matching yarn, sew the flowers onto the beanie in your desired arrangement. Feel free to mix and match colors for a vibrant look!
