Custom handmade beanie for my client

Hello lovely family Diyhub. Welcome to my blog. It's really been a while I explore new stitch with you all. My brand was launched this month as a crochet artist, and lot of orders has been coming in. Brand name: [Hooked by Zalibee]. While working on some nice projects, I promise to update you all on the process.And Today, I will be guiding you all on how I made this beautiful beanie hat for my client.

"Uh uh. Mind you this can't be found in the store. Yeah this baby, was customised @HookedbyZalibee.

This beanie colour combo was an inspiration from a Nigeria music artist "odumodublvck". And I will be giving a step by step guide on how I achieve this.

Materials used

• 3 different colours of yarns.
• 4.00mm hook.
• Measuring tape.
• And a stitch marker.

Below are the step by step process
Note: there are words you will be coming across more often during this guide. Which are: Chain, Half double crochet,and Slip stitch. And for this project red is the main colour so I will be starting with red.

STEP 1:I form a magic ring, and inside the magic ring, I place 10 half double crochet. Then I slip stitch in the first half double crochet and that's the end of row 1.

STEP 2:For row 2, I chain up 1, and into the same stitch space where i made a slip stitch, I place 2 half double crochet. And in the next stitch, I place 2 half double crochet. I continue to place 2 half double crochet in each stitch until the end of that row.
I slip stitch into the first half double crochet and that's the end row 2.

STEP 3:To start row 3, I chain up 1, and in the first stitch, I place 1 half double crochet. In the next stitch, I place 2 half doubl. 1 half double crochet in the next stitch. Then 2 half double crochet in the next stitch. I continue that process of 1 half double crochet in a stitch and in the next stitch 2 half double crochet all around that row. I slip stitch into the first half double crochet and that's the end of row 3.

STEP 4:For row 4, I chain up 1, into the first 2 stitch, I place 1 half double crochet in each. In the next stitch, I place 2 half double crochet.
I continue with 1 half double crochet in 2 stitches each and 2 half double crochet in the next stitch all around that row. I slip stitch into the first half double crochet and that's the end of row 4.

• In row 5 I repeat the same process but, I place 1 half double crochet in each of the first 3 Stitch. Then 2 half double crochet in the next stitch and I repeat that all around until the end of that row.

STEP 5: I change the colour of my yarn. I chain up 1, Into the first 4 stitches, I place 1 half double crochet in each of the stitch. In the next stitch, I place 2 half double crochet. I continue with 1 half double crochet in 4 stitches, and 2 half double crochet in the next stitch all around the row. I slip stitch into the first half double crochet and that's the end of row 6.

I change my colour of yarn, and begin row 7. In the first 7 stitches, I place 1 half double crochet in each and in the next stitch, I place 2 half double crochet. And i continue that until the end of row 7. Ending it with a slip stitch in the first half double crochet.

STEP 6: I change my yarn colour. For row 8 to 10, there will be no increase. So I place half double crochet in all of the stitches around then I slip stitch in the first half double crochet.

STEP 7:For row 11, I change my yarn to the main colour which is red. Then I place half double crochet in each of the first 8 stitches then in the next stitch, I place 2 half double crochet. In the next 6 stitches, I place half double in each, then in the next, I place 2 half double crochet. I continue to repeat half double crochet in 6 stitches and 2 half double crochet in the next stitch all around until the end of that row. And that's my last increase for this project.

STEP 8:Row 12-14 is the same process as row 8-10.

STEP 9: Then I continue the same process as row 8-10. But for row 15-19, I change my colour of yarn to black and white.

STEP 10:I continue the same process since there is no more increase,I continue with my rows until I have enough rows to fold.
