Slouchy Alpine Beanie
The Slouchy Alpine Beanie is a simple and easy crochet project, perfect for people starting to make beanies. If you would like to try a textured stitch, the Alpine Crochet stitch is a great place to start. Once you get into the rythm of the Alpine stitch, it’s rather pleasnt.
The beanie may be made with 8ply yarn, 4 and 4.5mm crochet hooks and a pom (if you prefer). This free pattern here will fit a size small (53-55cm) head.
The Slouchy Alpine Beanie is cozy and comfortable. I really enjoy making this simple textured beanie, I hope you do too.

If you would like to add a removable pom, attach button on the inside at the top of the beanie.
