#CROCHET CHART PATTERN FOR FAN DESIGN FULL VERSION#
You can purchase the full version with extended sizing in my Etsy or Ravelry shop as well. This version also has a photo tutorial as well as two charts, each with additional rows. The second version is the full version of the pattern with extended sizing. You can purchase the adult version in my Etsy or Ravelry shop. It has a photo-tutorial included, as well as additional chart rows so that you can customize the length of your beanie. This is a concise, ad-free version of what you are seeing here today on my blog. This pattern is available for purchase is two versions. This yarn is a pretty close match in size to the Color Made Easy and comes in a wide variety of solid colors. Here are few (but not all the possible) yarn recommendations that my testers tried out: Lion Brand WoolSpun, Red Heart Soft Essentials, Red Heart Hygge, Yarn Bee Soft & Sleek Bulky, Yarn Bee Wildstreak (4), Lion Brand Landscapes (4), DK weight yarn Double-Stranded.Īnother yarn that I recently tried for the Luxe Leopard Stocking was Brava Bulky from WeCrochet. As you might know, Bulky 5 Category yarn can vary quite a bit. This is one of my favorite bulky yarns to work with. I used Lion Brand Color Made Easy for this version of the Luxe Leopard Beanie. This hat works up fairly quickly (most of my testers were done in two sittings) and just uses a variation of single crochet. And I wanted it to be simple enough to be approachable for someone who is fairly new to crochet color work. My goal this time around was to design something that worked up quickly enough for makers to add them to their markets. Somehow the combinations of those tests, and the skills I learned along the way, finally got something to click, I suppose. In the meantime, I tested several patterns for other designers. So I put it away for a few weeks (or sometimes months) and I’d get it back out when I had a bit of inspiration of a new approach. I wasn’t sure that anyone would even want to make this hat. However, I struggled with tension and complexity of creating leopard print. One of the first crochet techniques that I learned was tapestry, and I’ve loved it ever since. This is a great way to support my small business AND get the supplies you need for your project!**Īs I said before, I’ve been working on the Luxe Leopard beanie for quite some time.
