colorblock tunisian beanie

Hi All! I know spring is right around the corner but I wanted to make one last beanie pattern before the warmer weather started to hit. I thought it would be fun to crochet a colorblock tunisian beanie.

This is going to be my last crochet tunisian project for a bit. I want to get back into traditional crochet. I miss it! I recently posted a pattern for the Tunisian Colorblock Scarf. If you liked that pattern, then you will love this beanie pattern as well because it uses the same stitch! In that post is a tutorial for the Tunisian Half Double Crochet stitch. I would suggest looking over the steps of the stitch before beginning this beanie.

Construction

This crochet colorblock tunisian beanie pattern is worked flat in a rectangle shape, and is then sewn up the side and cinched at the top. There are a few decrease rows that are made as well. I made my own faux fur pom using this tutorial and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! I love making my own poms because you can make them as big or little as you like! I typically don’t go for soft pink but I though it went really well with the grey and cream.

The Yarn

The yarn I used for this pattern I bought online from Hobium Yarns. If you’ve never heard of them before, they are a turkish based company that sells gorgeous yarn at discount prices. This was my first time buying from them and was not disappointed.

The yarn I used for this beanie is called Kartopu Cozy Wool. It is a #5 bulky weight yarn that is a blend of wool and acrylic. I really like this yarn. It’s very soft and the color choices are endless! Any #5 bulky weight yarn will work for this pattern.

      I was thinking of making this for my son. Any suggestions on a brim that would work well with this pattern.
