Masked Beanies: Batman (Version 2) & Captain America

More superhero patterns! These are BEANIES & MASKS all in one! So, because of this, they do look a little too long in the pictures....but they look good when put on! These are a continuance of the birthday presents for my son. He loves to dress up & "play superhero", so I'm making quite a few dress up superhero items for him to play in.

Here are the ones made for him....

As I'm doing so, I'm also making superhero baby sets to sell....

 (Look at my post Diaper Cover Patterns for more about my diaper covers)

I started off with my General Beanie Pattern, but added the row for the eyeholes after that.

Masked Beanie 

(found original pattern here, added patterns for every size)

(I always turn my beanies inside out after completing, to use that side as the “right side”, because I feel it always comes out looking better on that side)

***Note on my beanie patterns: I've realized that I had learned the DC stitch wrong, so my beanie pattern was done to the scale of my wrong stitch instead (which is really a long-DC stitch). So, you might want to do long-DC stitches, OR add a row or two to the bottom of the beanie (in this case: before the row with the Chain stitches that make the eyeholes). Also, my "Chain 2" NEVER counts as a DC in any of my patterns.***

(Every pattern that I currently have available to download is in Word format and is downloadable on my Scribd. If I do not have a pattern there, then I do not have a downloadable version of it. Please do not e-mail me with requests of patterns, as I most likely will not even check my e-mail. I apologize for this but I have a full-time job now and no longer keep up with the pattern requests. Thanks, and here is the link to my Scribd: https://www.scribd.com/ashley_holden_14)

Stitch Abbreviations:

CH= Chain

SC= Single Crochet

DC= Double Crochet

SL ST= Slip Stitch

ST= Stitch(es)

You will need size 4 Worsted weight yarn in Black for Batman OR Blue for Captain America (I used I Love This Yarn in Black & Royal Blue). I usually use the size H hook on everything, but I also work my stitches pretty tightly. (Just remember that changes hook changes the size of your work)
