Crochet Chunky Beanie
Materials Needed:
- 5 bulky yarn, 1 ball for this project.
- 6 mm crochet hook.
Instructions:
Starting the Project:
- Create a slip knot.
- Chain 27.
Row 1:
- Yarn over and insert your hook in the second stitch from your hook, pull up a loop. You'll have three loops on your hook.
- Pull the first loop through the other two loops on your hook.
- Again, yarn over, insert your hook, and pull up a loop. You have three loops on your hook and you pull the first loop through the remaining two.
- Repeat this process until the end of the row.
The last stitch:
- Place your last stitch, chain 1, and turn your work.
Row 2 onwards:
- Yarn over, insert your hook in the first stitch and pull up a loop, and pull the first loop through the remaining two loops.
- Continue this pattern (as described above) till the end of the row.
Ending the row:
- Chain 1 and turn your work.
- This is what your project should look like now. Continue this pattern until you reach 66 rows.
Finishing Steps:
- After reaching 66 rows, fold your work aligning the ends and slip stitch the top to join the sides.
- Make sure the edges are perfectly aligned and slip stitch in every hole.
- After your last slip stitch, chain 1 and cut off your yarn, leaving a very long tail for sewing.
Securing the ends:
- Use the long tail to sew the end around until you get back to where you started. A needle might work better for this step.
- Once you’ve sewn around, pull the end tight so that everything comes together.
Closing the top:
- Sew the top together from one side to the other to ensure everything is secure.
- To finish, make a knot by inserting your needle, taking the needle through the loop created, and tightening it. Repeat twice for extra security.
- Cut off the remaining yarn and weave in the ends.
Completion:
- You're done with the project! You can turn your work inside out to ensure everything is correctly in place.
