Hello Everyone!
Today is day 4 of the 10 days of giving pattern blowout and I’m bringing you the café beanie crochet pattern. This beanie uses one of my favorite stitches to use with self-striping and variegated yarns, the sedge stitch. The way the rows of this stitch form make the colors blend together wonderfully in my opinion.
I really enjoyed working this beanie for the 10 days of giving, it has a simple 1 row repeat for the design making it something you can just relax and work on and the stitch is relatively easy to do. This would be a great project to go through all that variegated yarn in your stash you got because it was pretty and then weren’t sure what to do with (my stash also looks like this)

Before we go…
As always I hope you all enjoyed today’s crochet pattern, it was a lot of fun for me to make and I’ve been saving this yarn for awhile I love the shades of brown that were in it. Like I said above I also love working this stitch especially with self striping yarns making it extra fun for me.
With this being the 10 days of giving pattern blowout I urge you to look at ways you can use your craft within your community. Crochet items can be a huge help for homeless shelters, women’s shelters, hospitals, schools, churches, and any other place local to your community that may be trying to give warmth items to those who need it.
