*THIS ITEM IS A DIGITAL DOWNLOAD* - link to physical item available below.

Droopy Cat Eared Slouch Beanie/Droopy Box Beanie- long stocking style box beanie with stretchy, large, ribbed brim. Brim is super soft and can stretch and contract much like elastic. This allows the beanie to fit snuggly while still being able to stretch to multiple sizes. Great if you are approximating the size of the person's head you are making the beanie for. This pattern has many examples of styles to choose from or use as inspiration for your project as well as helpful instructions for possible alterations.

DESCRIPTION OF DOWNLOAD

► LARGE labeled pictures and notes for each step.
► Pictured tutorials on front and back post double crochets and how to change colors if needed.
► Precise sizing chart and sizing comparisons for each size.
► Concise instructions with details to make adjustments/alterations if desired.
► There is helpful information for those who like to have it; concise enough to make this a rather quick project without too much reading.

Includes instructions for sizes:
► Preemie
► Baby - Small
► Baby - Large
► Child - Small
► Child - Large
► Teen to Adult - Snug Fit (for a tighter fit, has a firmer brim)
► Teen to Adult - Roomy Fit (for a slacker fit, helps with those with more head hair, has a looser brim)
► Adult XL
► Adult XXL

►► Beginners welcome! I try to make steps concise enough for all readers, but transparent enough for any level of crocheter. The most challenging step would be front and back post double crochets, for which I included guided pictured tutorials if needed. This project is easy to complete if you know the following skills before you start:
→ How to make a slip knot
→ How to make a chain
→ Single, double, and half double crochets
→ How to attach new yarn to change colors
→ How to tie off/fasten off yarn and weave in ends.

As a former teacher, I take much pride in my ability to outline procedures for different learning styles. I have included many pictures, alternative steps, and useful notes. If you download and do not feel like the instructions were clear enough, please contact me directly so I can help. Your feedback will be very helpful.
