After releasing the Ashlea Peaks Scarf crochet pattern last winter, I got quite a few requests to create a matching beanie and gloves set.
But the winter was already coming to an end, so I decided to leave it for this season. And, I haven’t forgotten! Only this time, the patterns are out just in time for winter makes!
I designed the Ashlea Mitts first and I wasn’t quite satisfied with the idea of creating just a beanie. It’s likely due to the fact that beanies are not really my go to accessories. I do wear them when I have to, such as when is freezing and snowing outside, but… So, I got this idea to try my hand at making a messy bun hat. I had never made one before and I imagined my long hair would be thrilled if not had to be tucked in under the beanie! And, I loved it!
Suddenly, I had too many ideas, that I ended up making two sets, Amabella and Ashlea (don’t ask how I came up with the names 😊). Both pattern sets include a beanie and a messy bun hat (or ponytail hat, however you like to call it). This way you don’t have to choose between them – you can do both or just make your favorite.
Ashlea Set Crochet Pattern is, as I mention before, two patterns in one: the Ashlea Beanie & the Messy Bun Hat. They use the same stitches and motifs as Ashlea Peaks Scarf and Ashlea Mitts, so you can create your winter collection and have all you need with just one set!
The best part is that I created two different brims for the beanie and the hat, but they work for both! So, instead of having just one item, you can have four different creations with one pattern! Like one of those Choose Your Own Adventure Books!
Now, that I’ve said this out loud, I’ve just got an idea! What about creating something like Choose Your Own Pattern Book? Think, for example, a scarf pattern with variety of stitch combinations and different edgings to choose from… Hmm, I will have to give it some serious thought! Would you let me know what you think about it?
Anyway, back to the Ashlea Set and some useful facts!
