Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Start with a Magic Ring:
2. Round 1:
   • Chain 2 (this counts as your first half double crochet, hdc).
   • Work 11 hdc into the magic ring.
   • Join the round by slip stitching (sl st) to the top of the chain-2. You should have a total of 12 stitches.
3. Round 2:
   • Chain 2.
   • Work 2 hdc in each stitch around.
   • Join with a sl st. You should have 24 stitches now.
4. Round 3:
   • Chain 2.
   • *Hdc in the next stitch, 2 hdc in the next stitch; repeat from * around.
   • Join with a sl st. You should have 36 stitches.
5. Round 4:
   • Chain 2.
   • *Hdc in the next 2 stitches, 2 hdc in the next stitch; repeat from * around.
   • Join with a sl st. You should have 48 stitches.
6. Round 5:
   • Chain 2.
   • *Front post double crochet (fpdc) around the next stitch, back post double crochet (bpdc) around the next stitch; repeat from * around.
   • Join with a sl st. You will still have 48 stitches.
7. Continue the Pattern:
   • Continue alternating between fpdc and bpdc in the established pattern until the beanie measures your desired length. This will create the ribbed texture.
8. Finish Up:
   • Once you reach the desired length, fasten off your yarn.
   • Weave in any loose ends using a yarn needle to ensure a clean finish.
