HDC Beanie

By MelodyCrochet copywritten 2015 - Enjoy! (and by enjoy I mean share on social media and tag me because
I love to see what you guys make!!)

This is the base for so many of my character hats. If you are using it for a plain hat use something soft and
plush...if you are making a character hat I highly suggest Red Heart Super Saver! It is just so much better
when you sew things on it and attach anything with glue.
