Bee Beanies

(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)

(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. Also, my "Chain 2" NEVER counts as a DC in any of my patterns.***

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 & Yellow (I used I Love This Yarn). 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)

Row 11: SC decrease (1 ST)
Do NOT Finish off, start your Edging/Border here using the same yarn first

Edging/Border

• It's best when you have added earflaps to do a border in that same color of the earflaps first, and then another border in the contrasting color. This will give you a better looking edge, taking care of any weird gaps caused by different size stitches. So, chain 1 (after last stitch from earflap) & then SC around entire beanie in that same color, join to first SC. Then change to the contrasting color (Ishowed below how I do that) & SC around entire beanie again (make sure that if you are doing Regular Ties, that you do them at the points of the earflaps starting immediately after changing colors for second border)

• Changing colors: End your last row by starting an SC into last stitch, but do not pull through loops on hook. So with the color your ending: yarn over, insert hook into last stitch, pull up a loop. Then get your second color: yarn over, pull through both loops on hook, slip stitch to first SC of round. Color change complete! Now, Chain 1 with this new color and continue with your border.

***I TURN MY BEANIES INSIDE OUT AT THIS POINT, OR WHEN I'M DONE BECAUSE I FEEL THE "INSIDE" WHILE YOU'RE WORKING ACTUALLY TURNS OUT LOOKING THE BEST.***

Ties

Braided Ties

• Cut yarn out of desired colors (1-3 colors) in 36" strands (9 total). Fold in half and grab at the loop that forms at the halfway point. Pull that loop through the ch-4 space from last row on Earflap. Open loop up and pull through the strands left (this makes a sort of knot to keep the braid on there and will double your strands, leaving you with 18).
• Divide yarn into three groups, keeping in mind how the colors will come out looking, and braid until desired length. Tie another knot to finish off and cut ends so that only about an inch to an inch and a half hang down. **I usually make the braids about 5 1/2 inches long (from knot to knot) for 0-9 months and almost 9 inches long (from knot to knot) for the bigger sizes**

Regular Ties

• Starting at the end of each earflap, chain 40 (or as long/short as you wish), SC in 4th chain from hook and the rest of the way down the chain.
• After doing both ties, attach Tassels or Pom-Poms.

Tassels

• Cut a piece of cardboard 3" square (or use the width of your palm). Wind a strand of yarn around the cardboard approximately 30 times (or however thick you want it) and cut it. 
• Cut a small length of yarn and insert it under all of the strands at the top of the cardboard; pull up tightly and tie securely. Leave the yarn ends long enough to attach the tassel to the beanie. Cut the yarn at the opposite end of the cardboard and then put the cardboard aside. Cut small length of yarn and, 1 inch below the top, wrap it tightly around the tassel twice; tie securely. Trim the ends and attach to beanie.

Pom-Poms

• Cut a piece of cardboard 3" square (or use the width of your palm). Wind a strand of yarn around the cardboard approximately 30 times (or however thick you want it) and cut it. Carefully slide off of your hand or the cardboard, being careful to make sure it keeps the same shape. 
• Cut about 15" length of yarn and place behind at the middle; wrap around and tie securely, making sure it stays at the middle. Leave the yarn ends long enough to attach the pom-pom to the beanie. Cut the yarn at the opposite both ends of the pom-pom to make the edges. Trim the ends, fluff it up, and attach to the beanie.

For Antennae (make 2)

Chain 16, SC in the second chain from the hook and in the next 4, 2 decreases over the next 4, SC in last 6
Finish off, leaving a long tail for sewing onto the top of beanie.

Diaper Cover Patterns

I now have my edited Diaper Cover Pattern for sale in my Etsy shop. I've had several requests so I finally got it up there.  You can buy it here. This is what it looks like:

I have found several free ones online, but I never felt like they looked proportionate or even anything like the shape of underwear. So, I combined several things and added to others to create a diaper cover pattern that I feel looks a lot more perfect.

(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)

Also, if you would like to know how I have done any of my diaper covers that have color changes, let me know and I will tell you the specific rows that I do certain color changes on (you will still have to buy the pattern to understand).

Some Diaper Covers I've made (possibilities are endless!):

I am currently working on getting the pattern written out for the Overall Diaper Covers (shown in this picture above).

Green Lantern Beanies

Trying to get more basic patterns posted while I'm working on typing the more in-depth ones. So, here's another superhero one that I just recently made, the Green Lantern beanie....

Beanies

I used my General Beanie Pattern for this. 

Of course, I usually make them into sets with my Diaper Cover Pattern.....

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

Circle

Chain 6, join to form circle, chain 2

Round 1: 2 HDC in each, join, chain 2 (12 HDC)

Round 2: 2 HDC in each, join, chain 2 (24 HDC)

Round 3: (HDC in next, 2 HDC in next) around, join, chain 2 (36 HDC)

Round 4: (HDC in next 2, 2 HDC in next) around, join, chain 2 (48 HDC)

Round 5-End: Continue pattern until at desired size to fit your beanie.

(For example, next round would be: (HDC in next 3, 2 HDC in next) around, join, chain 2)

Emblem

Stitch the Green Lantern emblem onto the circle & then sew onto beanie. There’s a good video here to show you how to stitch it on like this.

Masked Beanies: Ninja Turtles

Yeah, I know.......more superhero patterns??? But, again, I do have a boy so he's usually my inspiration. These continue my series of Masked Beanie (check out my Masked Beanies: Batman & Captain America post)!

The true Ninja Turtle colors are:
Raphael wears Red
Leonardo wears Blue
Donatello wears Purple
Michelangelo wears Orange

Of course they have to be made with extra rows to account for the masked part. So, because of this, they do look a little too long in the pictures....but they look good when put on!

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.

Masked Beanie 

(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.***

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 Green & in whatever you choose for you bandanna color. (I used I Love This Yarn in Jelly Bean. And in Red, Royal Blue, Orange, & Grape for my bandannas). 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)

Start with Green and change to your bandanna color when indicated.

Superman Beanies

Continuing with my Superhero craze, I had made a Superman beanie....

Beanies

I used my General Beanie Pattern for this. 

I actually bought the pattern for the logo, so I won't post it on here (but you can buy it here for pretty cheap). You can probably also create one yourself, it wouldn't be hard to duplicate.

Then, you would just need to stitch the "S" on it. There's a great tutorial here.

Of course, I usually make them into sets with my Diaper Cover Pattern.....

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

Better Patterns!!!

I have made a few changes to my General Beanie Pattern to add Pom-Poms and to clarify some things with more instructions and an added note about my pattern on the top! I also changed all my posts  to reflect this changes, so please check them out if you have had any issues with my patterns or are just interested in them!

I've also recently bought an infant mannequin head, so I added pictures of the beanies modeled on the mannequin to some of my posts and will get more up when I make more inventory. The posts with new pictures are:

• Batman Logo Beanies
• "Belted" Beanies: Leprechaun, Santa, & Pilgrim
• Butterfly Beanies
• Dallas Cowboys Beanies
• Football Beanies
• Frankenstein Beanies
• Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse Beanies
• Thing 1 & Thing 2 Beanies
• University of Texas Longhorns Beanies & Boots

And, I have added new sizes to a pattern that I only had one size for... my Mickey Mouse & Minnie Mouse Beanies post!

I wanted to fix my current posts before added new ones BUT I am still working on typing up things to add new patterns to the blog (as I posted about previously), and will post them REALLY soon! So, make sure you look for those FREE patterns, I have 20 drafts waiting to be finished and posted so there will be plenty to come! And some others that I will be selling, including my modified Diaper Cover Pattern & Overall-ed Diaper Cover (that I use for my minion sets).
