Single Crochet Beanie – Bottom Up

This bottom-up crochet beanie pattern is crocheted in a pretty striped color design for the fall season. I chose a light brown with red, but orange and yellow would also look great for the fall.

Choose your favorite seasonal colors or colors to match your favorite outfits for the fall and winter seasons. 

The crocheted beanie is gender neutral, and although given in one size only, can easily be adjusted to fit all family members from baby to adult sizes. Just note, that if you adjust the height, you may need to adjust your stripes as well. 

This easy crochet beanie is worked from the bottom up. For a different look, you might also enjoy this top-down single crochet beanie pattern.

Changing Colors

Colors are changed at the joining slip stitch of previous round.

To change color, finish the round as instructed, but without making the join. Insert your hook into the first stitch made in the round; pick up the new color and pull through the stitch as well as the loop on your hook.

Drop the old color and carry it up at each round.
