I have been crocheting since I was 3. I remember sitting in my grandmother's lap completely fascinated by this 'magic' of creating something with yarn and a hook. I am now grown and have 3 children (1 at home) and 2 granddaughters. I also have a doting boyfriend who loves going on adventures with me and I have a career that I wouldn't trade for any other. I adore our little family and am just navigating through life with a cup of tea and a crochet hook in hand.

Worsted weight yarn – 1 skein background color, 1 skein web color

H hook (or your trusty beanie making hook)

Yarn needle

  • For the color changes you can either bind off when you start the new color or carry over; it is up to you…. For this pattern I bound off R1 and carried over the rest (after several tries this is just what worked for me) I kept the WC to the front of the piece and the BC to the back of the piece when it wasn’t being worked.
  • Behind each fptc you will skip the coordinating st on the working row.

Abbreviations:

WC – web color

BC- background color

Hdc- half double crochet

Sc- single crochet

Ch- chain

Sl st – slip stitch

Fptc- front post treble crochet

BLO- back loops only

FLO- front loops only

With WC:    Ch 4, join with sl st to form a ring.

R1: ch 2 (will count as 1st hdc here & throughout), 9 hdc in the ring; join with a sl st (each row, here and throughout will be joined to the first stitch with a sl st)                                                                                         10 hdc
