Basic Earflap Beanie

This is a cute hat that is decorated with three little pink crocheted flowers. It also has a braided tie attached to each earflap. The pattern is for a basic earflap hat, but you can dress it up with stripes, buttons or flowers. Instructions for the little flowers are included. It is a pretty simple pattern, but because there is some shaping involved with the earflaps, I’ve classified it as Intermediate. Many color photos are also included to illustrate techniques.
