Ripple Lace Hat

"Just in time for holiday making, try the Ripple Lace Beanie – a free textured crochet hat pattern! I really love the Ripple Lace stitch. The combination of single crochet, double crochet and front post treble make for a wonderful textured pattern that is just perfect for a beanie! This pattern is written for adults in sizes small and large. I made the small size, which is 18″ and it fits my 20″ adult head perfectly because it has a decent amount of stretch due to the nature of the stitch used. So if you want to make for an older child or teen, the adult small should work perfectly. Yarn: Lion Brand Yarn Heartland, 1 skein Badlands (worsted weight #4) Hooks: US Size H (5.0mm) and I (5.5mm) Notions: Yarn needle/tapestry needle, Scissors"
