easiest ribbed beanie
Crochet Pattern
Every single day, we see beginners struggling with ribbed beanies. We heard you, and we wrote a pattern with no abbreviations to help you finally get it right! This is The Easiest Ribbed Beanie… ever. The pattern includes instructions for two beanie styles (cinched top and cat ear) as well as troubleshooting tips to help with the most common issues. The beanie is crocheted side to side and is made to measure in sizes preemie to XL. Our examples use Aran yarn. You will need to be able to crochet in rows.

Aran weight acrylic yarn (Marvel Denim Effects 12 ply)
Smoke 100g (approx. 160 metres for Adult Medium)
Eclipse Blue 60g (approx. 96 metres for Adult Small)

Our patterns are written a little differently with beginner and neurodivergent crafters in mind. The abbreviated instructions are followed by a breakdown in italics, making it easier to understand what you need to crochet in each row / round. If you’ve had trouble reading crochet patterns in the past, we hope that you’ll give ours a try!
