Trendy Crochet Beanie Hat
Inspiration
There is no a happy time than when you are looking forward to welcoming a new baby into the family. I remember when I was expecting my children I looked forward to their arrival and had so many ideas on what I wanted to make for them. I obviously did not know whether the baby would be a girl or a boy until they were born, so most often made unisex projects.
For my grandchildren, it has been different since I knew whether i was going to have a boy or a girl. I therefore crocheted for them specifically. Personally I like the idea of unisex unless i am making for a specific baby. A unisex crochet pattern gives both the boy or girl the opportunity to enjoy a any pattern.That is why I decided to crochet a unisex beanie hat. the only thing you have to do is change the color for a specific baby.
I had fun making this hat. It is a quick and easy pattern using only basic stitches of single and double crochet. This hat
