A lovely crocheted beanie made with Sweet Rolls yarn. Premier Sweet Rolls yarn is a combination of 3 alternating colours in each ball. The most noticeable difference I found with this yarn is that the yarn is pre-wound into a ‘cake’ rather than a ball, this makes them really easy to use as a centre pull. Centre pull balls are great to use as they don’t roll around on the floor everywhere! I made this beanie in about 1 hour, then another 30 minutes or so to make the gorgeous pompom which sits proudly on top of the beanie.
Ideas
You can slip stitch the bottom of the hat to make it a tighter fit around the head or you can SC around for a looser look.

CH 3, FPDC into first ST, BPDC into next ST, repeat all way around, repeat next 3 rows = 4 rows, this stitch creates a ribbed effect. To finish the edging, you can SL ST around to create a tighter fit to the head, or you can SC around to create a looser look!
Once you have reached your height change to Cotton yarn double the yarn to crochet SC x 1 into each ST repeat 8 rounds. You can fold the top of the yarn to create a rolled finish.
