amberblissthis It’s my pleasure to take part in the 2023 Crochet Cancer Challenge with Sweet Potato 3 for the 4th year in a row. If you’ve been following along for any length of time, you’ll know that cancer has affected my life very personally. It’s just been over a year since we lost my sister-in-law, Magui, to cancer. You might have been a contributor to our fundraiser for her cancer treatments and travel expenses in 2020. If so, I thank you.
This cause is so close to my heart, I just had to participate again. This past summer, we lost my beloved grandma to cancer. She was dear to my heart. I pray that as you make this beanie, you will find comfort and pass on comfort. Thank you so much for participating in the Crochet Cancer Challenge!
The Breaker Beanie
The Breaker Baanie works up flat, sideways, with 2 different stitch patterns: a half double crochet folded brim, and the trinity stitch for the body of the hat. Then the hat is seamed and the top cinched closed. Easy as that, you’ll have a hat to pass on to a loved one or to donate!
This hat is rated Easy. With knowledge of hdc, sc, working stitches together, and skipping stitches, you’ll be able to create your own Breaker Beanie!
This hat comes in ONE SIZE. Information is given in the NOTES on how to create a smaller or larger beanie. I used 230 yards of a thicker DK weight yarn.
The beanie has a folded brim. It can also be worn without folding as a slouchy beanie.
