Hello Everyone!
We’re here to start off the 12 days of Christmas pattern blowout! For the next 12 days we’re going to be doing small quick projects that you can get done before Christmas or whatever holiday you personally celebrate!
This project is a ton of fun to make with variegated and self striping yarns. The way the stitches work in this project it pulls each row into each other to blend them together to help hide harsh color changes. It also makes a great present especially for the younger members of your family.

Before we go…
As always I hope you all enjoyed today’s pattern it was a ton of fun to make I’m sure you’ve noticed but I absolutely love working with this color way especially with stitches like these that helps the colors blend together.
This project works up pretty quickly you should be able to make in an evening or a weekend. It’s perfect for last minute holiday gifts like I said earlier slouchy beanies have been getting pretty popular.
If you enjoyed today’s pattern you can see my winter rainbow slouchy beanie, or my sprout slouch. Both of these patterns can be completed before Christmas as well if you’re still looking for ideas.
Once again I hope you all enjoyed today’s pattern, happy holidays and as always happy hooking!
