I’ve been meaning to post this since Christmas, but I didn’t have a decent photo of it and kept on forgetting to get one before my hubs left for school. Today it so happens that we were once again left with only our phone cameras, but I figure it’s better than nothing, and I want to post this before it’s legitimately spring.

I think I made four or five of these for Christmas, and they were a big hit all around. Who doesn’t want an instant beard? Don’t answer that.

When I first looked around for a free pattern I couldn’t find anything that I really liked, so one night when I was with Tiny in the hospital, I spent three hours just figuring this out. I referenced no other pattern, so if you see any similarities, than they are purely coincidental. I came up with this after much trial and error, and it’s still not a perfect pattern. In fact, I would love it to be a work in progress, so if any of you try it and figure out a better way, I would love for you to add any suggestions into the comments section. I am NOT a seasoned crocheter, so please forgive any ignorance or mistakes on my part. I will likely add photos or any other tips to this post if I make more.
