The Design
YES! It's CROCHET! The Calyx Beanie was inspired by the anatomy of a flower (hence the name). The calyx is the part of the flower that surrounds the growing bud/petals. Aesthetically, it features a scalloped brim in order to reflect this floral anatomy. It also features mirrored short row shaping and a sophisticated 1x1 knit-like texture. It's gender neutral, so it looks great on both men and women. It's the perfect selfish crochet project and a great unique gift for loved ones!
Fit + Sizing
The Calyx Beanie has a classic fit, with a stretchy, 1x1 knit-like ribbed texture for the body.
Hat can be made in 3 sizes—size 1, size 2, and size 3—and is designed to fit head of an average youth-adult with head circumference between approximately 19-24". Due to ribbed design, hat is very stretchy width-wise, so can stretch to fit most heads. For reference, model has a 22" head and is wearing a size 2.
Size | Head Circum. | Hat Circum. |
Size 1 | 19-20" | 14.5" |
Size 2 | 21-22" | 16.5" |
Size 3 | 23-24" | 18.5" |

Yarn Substitutions
The yarn I used, WeCrochet Capra DK is a 85% fine superwash merino wool and 15% cashmere blend. You could easily substitute many DK and light worsted weight yarns for this pattern. The wpi is 11, so feel free to use that + the gauge to determine if the yarn you plan on substituting is a good fit. You can also check out Yarn Sub. I recommend making sure you make a gauge swatch. Small differences in gauge can lead to big differences in project outcome. For more on gauge, you can read this blog.
