Crystal Drops Crochet Beanie Free Pattern

Crystal Drops Crochet Beane Pattern by Crochet For You

Beanie season is almost here, it’s time to share another beanie pattern with you! I redesign my old pattern to new style. A couple of years ago I made these Crystal Drops Beanies Top Down because I love the Crystal Drop stitch pattern which I used for Crystal Drops Cowl

This time I decided to make a bottom up beanie using this special crochet stitch pattern. And added stripes, pompoms made with two contrasting colors. I hope you like this beanie pattern and made winter holiday gifts for your family and friends.

This pattern available in size teen, but can be adjusted to any size, see the note section.
