Jessica Cooper The Dream Weaver Crochet Beanie is a crochet pattern in 3 sizes: adult, child, and toddler. It has a wide folded up brim for extra warmth. Complete with a yarn or faux fur pom pom.
The Dream Weaver Crochet Beanie uses a crochet technique for the body of the beanie called the Basket Weave. It uses Double Crochet Post Stitches in a way that looks like a weave in and out.
Pattern is worked with Medium 4 Weigh Yarn. Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn! was used in the photos. I love the way this yarn works up. It also comes in a wide variety of colors.
The Dream Weaver Crochet Beanie is worked from the Brim up. It uses a wide brim that is folded up once completed. It comes in 3 sizes: Toddler measures 7”H x 8”W using 175 yards, Child measures 8”H x 9”W using 225 yards, Adult measures 9”H x 10”W using 275 yards. Toddler is for ages approximately 2-4 years old, Child for 5-10 years, and Adult ages 11 and up.
Complete the beanie with a faux fur pom pom. Make your own faux fur poms with fabric sold by the yard at your local craft store. I bought mine from my Walmart’s Craft Section. 1/3 of a yard can make about 20 6″ pom poms. See post and video HERE to learn how to make your own pom pom.

Why can’t I copy and paste this pattern? I like having a paper pattern so I don’t have to sit at my computer while crocheting. Thank you
There is a link to the pdf on Ravelry 😊
Hello!
I was wondering what other brand of yarn would be comparable to Hobby Lobby, I love this yarn, since they don’t ship to Canada 🙁
