Crunch Stitch Slouchy Beanie Free Crochet Pattern

Hello Everyone!

It’s day 2 of the 12 days of Christmas pattern blowout and I’m bringing you another slouchy beanie. This one uses a combination of beginner friendly stitches to make a lovely texture that pops on either self striping or solid colored yarns.

This pattern works up in a weekend or an evening so you have plenty of time to get it made before Christmas or whatever holiday you celebrate. You can also make one for yourself to congratulate yourself for all the hard work you’ve done this holiday season.
