Crochet Messy Bun Beanie - Christmas Edition

 The Messy Bun Beanie is very easy to make. You can get one done in just a couple of hours, even for beginners. This would make a lovely Christmas gift. 


The tutorial video :  



I used cotton yarn and a 4 mm hook. I also added some eye lashes yarn to make it fluffy at the edge. 

1) Chain 10, single crochet (sc) in the next 9 stitches starting from the 2nd stitch from the hook.

2) Chain 1, turn the work and do sc on the back loop in the next 9 stitches. Repeat the same for about 50 rows. Bring it together and measure it on the head and see if it fits. It is a bit stretchable, so stretch it when measuring on the head. If it does not fit, do few more rows.

3) Joint it with a slip stich.

4) Turn work 90 degree and work our way up with puff stitch.

5) Do single crochet all around and add about 5 to 6 increases (2 sc in one stitch). In the end, make sure the total number of stitches is in even number. End with a slip stitch.

6) Chain 1, make a puff stitch ( pull up 4 yarn and put thru all 5 yarn on the hook and then chain 1 to make 1 puff). Skip the next stitch and make a puff stitch in the next. So skip one stitch in between the puff stitch. At the end of the row, do a slip stitch to the first. 

7) The next row, chain 1, do a puff in the space area between puffs. Repeat and do all in 7 rows of puff stitch.

8) Row 8th, chain 1, do 3 puff stitches (with a skip one in between puffs) and do a decrease ( pull up 3 yarn on the 1st chain space and pull up 3 yarn on the next chain space and put thru all 7 yarn on the hook and chain 1 to make a decrease ). Repeat until end of the row.

9) Row 9th, chain 1, do 2 puffs and a decrease, repeat until end of the row.

10) Last row, do the same decrease. 

11) Do sc all around and you can stop here or do one more row of reverse sc. 

Refer to the video above for better understanding.
