I've learned an old stitch technique. It's called a Mini Bean Stitch. I've learned it from Olivia of Hopeful Honey. She creates crochet videos that is so easy to follow. And this one was a very easy one to follow. And so I decided to make a hat out of it. And the funny thing is I don't know what to name a beanie that is made up mostly of Bean Stitches.. Beany Beanie anyone? lol . I made two version of this hat. One that is longer and one shorter.
And worn just as normal like this.
But with the longer one. If you continue to work more rows, it will be longer. It can be worn in different ways.
So here is now the pattern. But before you make this one, make sure to view Hopeful Honey's video Tutorial on this stitch so that it will be easier for you.
