This whimsical crochet beanie is my new favourite hat right now, they are made up with criss cross crochet stitch that I just learn how to do it. I love the texture that came out of it and the airy gap between the stitch so this is the perfect hat for spring and winter! To keep you warm and stylish. Basicly this beanie made from long piece of one crochet rectangle.
