It didn't take me long to start one of these. And it didn't take me long to make it, either.
I think I'm the loosest crocheter ever, because the adult size ended up being a slouchy hat instead of a beanie. I used Cotton-Ease, which is a standard, worsted weight, yet I crochet loose, so I figured it'd all even out. Well, the stitches were huge so the hat came out pretty large. But I absolutely adore it. I ended up doing only about 28 rows instead of the 37, mostly because I ran out of yarn. I managed to squeeze out one row of single crochet around the edge. And I just used a slip stitch join rather than whip-stitching.
When I make another one I'll follow the directions a bit better, I think. I need to find some yarn at the shop to use so I can make a store sample!
