Snorlax Earflap Beanie (Pokemon)

By Janet Carrillo "damn it Janet, let's crochet!"
Get ready to snooze in style with this adorable crochet Snorlax beanie!💤

SIZE/MEASUREMENTS
Toddler (12 months - 3yrs) [18" to 19.5" head circumference]
Child/Small Adult [20" to 21.5" head circumference]

MATERIALS
*Crochet hook size: 3.75mm (F) & 5.0mm (H)
*Worsted Weight Yarn: Windsor Blue, Cream & Black
*Stitch Markers to mark your rounds
*Felt: White
*Tapestry needle
*Matching thread

GAUGE
3 hdc stitches x 2.5 rows = 1"
At the end of round 8, laying flat = 6.25" in diameter
Don’t forget to check your gauge.

PATTERN NOTES
 Numbers in ( ) at the end of each round/row indicate the total number of stitches.
 Always use stitch markers to mark your rounds.
 The ch 2 at the beginning of each round counts as 1 hdc.
 You slip stitch on the top of the chain 2.
 When a round or row mentions “around/across” you will be working that whole sequence from that round/row around the entire piece. (EX: sc in next st, 2sc in next st, around = sc, inc, sc, inc,…)

SPECIAL STITCHES
Invisible join - this VIDEO explains how to do this technique.
Single crochet 3 stitches together (sc3tog) – is a decrease over 3sts. Insert yarn thru 1st st, y/o pull thru, insert thru 2nd st, y/o pull thru, insert thru 3rd st, y/o pull thru, & y/o pull thru all 4 loops on hook.

BRAIDS
Cut 18 pieces of yarn (9 for each earflap) about 36 inches long. Fold each bunch in half and push the folded end through an opening in the bottom of each earflap. Pull the unfolded ends through the loop and pull tight. Braid the strands and tie a knot to secure the braid. Complete the second braid the same way.


ASSEMBLE
     I recommend pinning the pieces before sewing them to make sure you have them in the position you like best before sewing. (Most people prefer to use the yarn at the end of the finished pieces to sew them in place, but I use matching thread).
     EARS...there’s no need to stuff them, simply flatten them out. Place them between rounds 5 and 9 for both sizes.
     FACE...place it between rounds 7 and 16. for size toddler beanie. Place it between rounds 9 and 19 for size child/adult beanie.
      EYES to FACE...using black embroidery floss or yarn, embroider the eyes between rows 11 and 12; approx. 5 sts wide for both sizes.
     MOUTH to FACE...using black embroidery floss or yarn, embroider the mouth between rows 4 and 5; approx. 9 sts wide for both sizes.
     TEETH...using white felt. Cut out 2 little triangles and glue them on each end of the mouth for both sizes.

Snorlax Beanie (knit)

By Janet Carrillo "damn it Janet, let's crochet!"
    Simple but yet very stylish; for boys and girls of all ages. You can comfortably wear it during any season depending on the yarn you used and the weather, of course. This is an easy-to-knit beanie if you know the basics knit, purl and k2tog.

SIZE/MEASUREMENTS
Child (6yrs - 10yrs) [19" to 20" head circumference]
Teen/Small Adult [20" to 21" head circumference]
Adult (men) [21" to 23" head circumference]

MATERIALS
*Worsted Weight Yarn: windsor blue & small amounts of cream, black & white
*DPN's or Circular Needles: 4.5mm & 5.0mm
*Stitch Marker to mark your rounds
*Tapestry Needle

GAUGE
Using 5.0mm needles...  4.5 stitches x  6 rows = 1"
Don't forget to check your gauge.

PATTERN NOTES
  This pattern can either be knitted when making the hat or duplicate stitched on afterward; the choice is yours. Here's a great video on how to duplicate stitch; HERE.


STARTING the BEANIE
CO 80 (90, 90) sts on 4.5mm needles with windsor blue yarn.
Place a marker and join in the round, being careful not to twist the stitches.
Do ribbing (k1, p1) for 1 inch (approx. 6 rounds).
Change to larger needles and proceed knitting for 4 (4.5, 5) inches. This will give you approx. 27 (32, 37) rounds. Please follow the graph to know in which rows to do the color changes.

SHAPING the CROWN
  Rnd 1: k8, k2tog around
  Rnd 2 and all even rnds: knit around
  Rnd 3: k7, k2tog around
  Rnd 5: k6, k2tog around
  Rnd 7: k5, k2tog around
  Rnd 9: k4, k2tog around
  Rnd 11: k3, k2tog around
  Rnd 13: k2, k2tog around
  Rnd 15: k1, k2tog around
  Rnd 17: k2tog around
Leave a tail (up to 8"). You will use a tapestry needle to thread the tail through the last remaining stitches on your needle. After removing the needles from the stitches, pull tightly to close the top hole. Lastly, hide the tail inside and weave it in.

NOTE: The ears are worked all in one piece and then folded in half.
EARS with windsor blue; make 2

F/O and draw through the remaining stitch. Weave in the ends.
Fold the ear in half along row 16. Using the 3.75mm (F) crochet hook, single crochet along the entire ear to close it off. F/O, weave in all ends.
Another method you can use if you're not comfortable crocheting, use a tapestry needle and whip stitch along the entire ear to close it off.


ASSEMBLE
     I recommend pinning the pieces before sewing them to make sure you have them in the position you like best before sewing. (Most people prefer to use the yarn at the end of the finished pieces to sew them in place, but I use matching thread).
     EARS...lay out the beanie flat and find the position you like best.
