Donation Hats

This Winter I have been busily crocheting hats/beanies as donations to the local thrift shops, hoping they will help some families keep their kids warm.

Here are some of the hats/beanies that I have crocheted for the donation box mainly using up leftover yarn from previous projects.  

There are plenty of free patterns on the internet that you can download or watch on YouTube.  They only take a hour or so to complete.  Great for working on during the evening whilst watching TV.  



If you can crochet even just the basic stitches you could make one of these.  And believe me once you have made one, you won't stop there. 

Here is a link to a video I created for the Crochet Ribbed Beanie.

Very easy to work.

So why don't give it a try....

A Hat With Love

 
Tried this pattern out after watching a video by Bobwilson123 called Made With Love. Far easier that I thought. You can find the free pattern and tutorial at: http://www.myhobbyiscrochet.com/…/a-hat-with-love-free-croc…

 I found this to be an easy pattern to follow.  I have only followed a graph pattern a couple of times before and found this to be easy.  But, I might add that is best to read all the instructions and work your way through the pattern in your head before starting it. Familiarise yourself with the graph.  I really hope you give it a try.
