About this Product
This digital download pattern contains easy-to-follow instructions to crochet the Chunky Guy Beanie. It's the yarn that's chunky -- and not necessarily the guy -- in this perfectly proportioned classic beanie.
The pattern offers four sizes: Small, Medium, Large and Extra Large with head circumferences of 21, 22, 23, 24 in./53, 56, 58, 61 cm.
Worked in joined rounds, the beanie is crocheted from the top down and uses basic stitches -- double crochet and single crochet.
YARN:
The Chunky Guy uses yarn (#5 Bulky) with a recommended crochet gauge of 10 sc = 4 in./10 cm. You may also use two strands of light worsted weight yarn held together.
WHAT YOU GET:
A 4-page PDF pattern that also provides links to my website -- www.hatsbyelvee.com -- for technique tutorials and stitch definitions for new crocheters. The written instructions use American crochet terms.--

Meet the Maker
The Chunky Guy Beanie, pictured here, is my best-selling pattern, with hundreds sold to makers from around the world. The pattern exemplifies what I love most about crochet and knitting: An easy pattern can produce a classic look as well as an enjoyable crafting experience.
Almost all of my patterns use simple, basic stitches. I occasionally venture into intermediate territory -- but only if the end result is worth the extra effort.
One of my favorite activities is to round up a few balls of yarn and experiment with stitches and shapes and color combinations. It's an adventure to find out what kind of hat the yarn wants to be. A sassy, lacy Juliet cap for summer? A rugged, ribbed topper for frigid days? A snazzy fedora that evokes vintage glamour?
I really enjoy doing my small part in bringing warmth and beauty into the world, one hat at a time. My wish is that you enjoy making/wearing/gifting hats from my patterns as much as I enjoyed creating them!
Happy crocheting/knitting!
