• Hook: Size N/P (10 mm) crochet hook
• Scissors: For cutting yarn
• Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Start with a Magic Ring:
2. Round 1:
   • Chain 2 (this counts as your first half double crochet, or hdc).
   • Work 9 hdc into the magic ring.
   • Join the round by slip stitching (sl st) to the top of the chain-2. You should have a total of 10 stitches.
3. Round 2:
   • Chain 2.
   • In the same stitch, work 1 hdc.
   • Now, work 2 hdc in each stitch around the circle.
   • Join with a sl st to complete the round. You should have 20 stitches now.
4. Round 3:
   • Chain 2.
   • For this round, you will alternate between front post double crochet (fpdc) and back post double crochet (bpdc).
   • Work a fpdc around the next stitch, then a bpdc around the following stitch. Repeat this pattern around the entire round.
   • Join with a sl st. You will still have 20 stitches.
5. Continue in Established Pattern:
   • Keep alternating between fpdc and bpdc for each round until your beanie reaches your desired length. Typically, this will be about 8-10 inches long.
6. Finishing:
   • Once you have reached the desired length, fasten off your yarn by cutting it and pulling it through the last loop.
   • Use your tapestry needle to weave in any loose ends to ensure a clean finish.
