Emma Beanie Crochet Pattern

The Emma Beanie was one of the first beanies that I designed and it is a fun up and down texture.  This beanie is great for a beginner because it uses basic crochet stitches to work up this simple but beautiful texture.  You will be able to whip up this beanie in no time.  This beanie is a great one to customize with any color scheme and create a fabulous stripped beanie!  So grab you yarn, hook, and get ready to get hooked on the Emma Beanie.
