This crochet pattern includes 8 sizes: 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, 1-4 years, 5-10 years, tween/teen, adult and large adult. It uses 8ply/DK weight yarn and a 5.5mm hook. The pattern is written in English using UK crochet terminology.

This sweet beanie is inspired by the gentle bluebell flower, but made in different colours it can look like a strawberry or even a pumpkin! Make it without the leafy top for a lovely, simple lace beanie, or use any of the three leafy stem variations. Including all sizes, this beanie would be perfect for sibling/family/mini & me matching photo shoots, and is also designed to coordinate with the Sweet Bluebell Bonnet for even more matching options!
The pattern is designed to provide an abundance of support so that even the novice crocheter can make the beanie.
