Satisfy your obsession with texture when you make the Drexel Beanie, a FREE crochet pattern from TL Yarn Crafts x WeCrochet!
When I first signed on as an ambassador for WeCrochet (sister site to KnitPicks), I knew I was in for a treat. But I didn’t realize how much the plethora of yarns on the WeCrochet website would inspire me. I’ve created the trendy Mika Vest, as well as the versatile Skyward Kerchief. Each one was heavily influenced by the yarn I chose. For the Drexel Beanie, I went with the bulky weight Mighty Stitch Bulky, a fantastic acrylic/wool blend. The result is a slouchy, bobbly, playful hat that’s perfect for even the coldest winter days.

Build on your Tunisian crochet skills when you make the Braided Tunisian Ear Warmer, a FREE Tunisian crochet pattern from TL Yarn Crafts x JOANN!
I love a crochet hat just as much as the next person. Some of my favorite TLYC patterns are beanies (see the Mega Pom Beanie and the Bubble Wrap Slouch). But, for a gal with big, curly hair like myself, beanies just won’t do when the weather gets cold. Instead, I opt for headbands and earmuffs. This year, I made the ultimate cold-weather accessory – the Braided Tunisian Earwarmer, designed in collaboration with JOANN using Red Heart Heat Wave, a sunlight activated heat-generating yarn. Now you can be super cute and super warm at the same time!
