It is worked up in a thick and fuzzy yarn, which might make it a bit more difficult for the absolute beginner. But if you are comfortable with your hook and yarn, can make the single crochet and change colors, then this pattern is perfect for you.

The thick yarn not only makes it quick to whip up, but super cozy as well. Perfect for cold winters.
