This is a really easy kids crochet beanie pattern for you to crochet and the main stitch used is the U.S. single crochet also known as the U.K. double crochet.
You can crochet this kids beanie with or without a cuff; adding a cuff is simple by adding on more rows at the end.
This pattern is worked in a continuous round and ends off with a slip stitch edging to give it a neat finish.
