Each of these 5 hats were inspired by one of the patterns linked below. I say they are “inspired” because I changed each one to be custom and unique for each person I am gifting them to.
I have discovered a new way I like to edge my beanie's and that is with a Front Post Single Crochet. The FPSC makes the edge of the beanie thicker and stronger (while still leaving the stretch) right where the hat needs to feel the most secure.
These patterns are not in any specific order.

Thank you Corina for the link to my site. I love your version of the houndstooth beanie hat!!!
Thanks! 😀 It had lots of recommendations for me to try it! I really like it. I didn’t expect the fun pattern in the stripes to be something so simple and easy to do. I did add an increase round like you said you did for your husband. 🙂
My husband wears his all the time! Glad it was fun! 🙂
I love Number 1. what color and brand did you use for your main color?
I am honestly not sure what yarn it is. It was recently gifted to me without the label. It is some sort of “tweed” though if that helps.
I’m a new reader (I found you through Tangled Happy’s post sharing your leg warmers) and went through and found all your free patterns and fell in love! You do awesome stuff. 😀
You seem to be a amazing crochet master, I’m trying to make a pattern because no matter how I try I can’t find what I’m lookin for. I guess my question is how do you add a logo or design to the front of the hat
