This crochet beanie uses a combination of beginner-friendly stitches to create a lovely waved ribbing texture that’s perfect for men and women. This project works up quickly in about an hour to an hour and a half depending on the size used.

Any weight 5 yarn can be used as long as you can meet gauge with it. Some of my testers have also seen success using 2 strands of weight 4 yarn and working tightly to reach gauge as well.
