This man’s beanie is very popular in my family and is super easy to make.
I made these beanies in the recommended Drops Nepal yarn (65% wool, 35% alpaca) and they’re very warm and have a lovely texture. The colour is very nice also.
The pattern has a great spiral design and fits perfectly. I also made a smaller beanie for my nephew, and a beanie in an 8 ply acrylic yarn for a friend who doesn’t wear wool – the pattern is quite easily adapted for other yarn and hook sizes because it provides some basic measurements. Just remember to divide the required head circumference by 3.14 and increase every row until the diameter measures that amount, then continue the pattern without increasing until the length from the centre to the edge is sufficient (23cm for a large adult head is suggested by the pattern).
This pattern only uses single crochet stitch (US terminology) so is very simple.
