Crochet-a-long: Slouchy Beanie


I was so excited when I stumbled upon the The Curious Pug's December crochet-a-long. Yes, I know it is January and I'm a month late, but I couldn't wait to try out the pattern and make a slouchy hat for myself too. 

Wanna crochet your own slouchy hat?? You can find the pattern over at Little Things Blogged. Also, be sure to link up with The Curious Pug and check out everyone else's hats too! This pattern was super easy to whip up and is a perfect starter project for a beginner.  Yay, for cozy crochet! Let me know if you give it a try. 



Project Details:
Yarn - Lion Brand Wool Ease in Natural Heather and Blush Heather
Hook - Size 5
Time - One evening watching TV
Difficulty - Easy Breezy (Go for it beginners!!)
Skills - Crocheting in the round, Increasing, Changing Colors 

P.S. As you can see I'm also getting some mileage on that Wordy Love Sweater I made.  ;)
