The Alpine Stripe Beanie is the matching hat for the Alpine Pocket Scarf - a reader request! Cozy, stripey, and available in three sizes! Both the hat and scarf are completely unisex, and the fringe on the scarf is totally optional. The Alpine Stripe Beanie features simple stripes to match the pockets on the Alpine Pocket Scarf, but you can omit them - or add more. Add extra row repeats to turn the beanie into a slouch, or add buttons to each side to hold your mask on while keeping your ears warm. To make this pattern into a ponytail beanie, start by crocheting Rnd 4 around an elastic hairband, and then follow the instructions from there. To pom or not to pom - it's up to you!
