So Easy, So Cool Way To Warm Your Ears

by

This is about the easiest design I’ve ever seen – and so incredibly innovative!  I am a dedicated walker.  I walk outside in all kinds of weather (except ice) and detest hats.  This headband is the absolute perfect design for me!  I’m thinking there are plenty of other crocheters (and walkers) out there who can use it too.  That one little twist pretty much guarantees that the headband (earwarmer) will fit any head – no elastic needed.  So, I my ears can remain toasty warm while the rest of my head is unencumbered.

In addition to this and a few other free crochet patterns, designer Pamela Dempsey has some fantastic patterns available to purchase.  She has a grouping of four hats for men that is pretty cool – and will please men of all ages, from the teens to their grandpas.  Take some time to check out all the goodies on her blog where you can find the free pattern for this Moebius Headband, then look at her designs on artfire.com.

Crochet Baby Beanie – A Sweet Beginner-Friendly Hat Pattern for Baby Showers and Handmade Gifts

This Crochet Baby Beanie is one of those simple little patterns that makes a really lovely handmade gift. It uses soft Bernat Softee Baby yarn for the hat, a fluffy Pipsqueak edging, and an optional crochet flower on the side, giving it that cute baby-shower-ready finish.

What makes this one appealing is that the shape is worked in easy rounds, starting with a magic circle and increasing up to 48 stitches before moving into the textured post-stitch section. The fluffy edging softens the whole look, and the added flower gives it a sweet decorative touch without making the project feel too fussy.

I also like that it feels like a pattern you could easily customize. You could skip the flower for a simpler baby beanie, change the colors for a more modern look, or keep the pink-and-white version for a classic handmade baby gift. It has that practical “quick weekend project” feel, which is always handy when a baby shower sneaks up on you.

If you’re looking for an easy crochet baby hat pattern with a soft, cozy finish, this one is definitely worth a look. It’s cute, giftable, and the fluffy trim gives it a little extra charm.
