Beanie cap!



Yes! my interest in crocheting is growing day by day! My next small project is the beanie cap. This suits the head of a new born baby. The hook number used is 12G/2.50 mm. Colors: Light green and leaf green. Thanks to http://crochet-mania.blogspot.com/2008/11/stripe-crochet-beanie-cap.html for providing free instructions which I followed for this cap. Additionally, I have tied two balls at the top of the cap.
To make the balls, take a thick chart paper and cut into the shape of a ulundu vada/doughnut (a small hole at the centre). Keep winding the yarn into the small hole till the hole is completely filled. Cut the yarn (outer circumference of the circle) with a sharp blade/knife. Tie the whole bunch with a thread at the centre. Cut and take away the chart paper. Now give a smooth roll with hands to the ball.
