Diamonds are a girls best friend! Well this Diamond Drops Beanie Crochet Pattern isn't something flashy but it is gorgeous. This pattern is a little more advanced, using a special stitch to create the diamond look and it is fun to make! This beanie is a huge favorite of mine, the gorgeous texture, the color, everything about this beanie. You must add this Diamond Drops Beanie to your project list and make it for someone in your life as the crochet pattern includes sizes for everyone from newborn to adult! I have a huge passion for crochet texture and this one and that appeared after making the beanie, it wasn't planned but it was a fabulous surprise!
