Character Beanies!
Below is a compilation of our resources to help create magical character beanies. If you have a pattern you’d like to donate, please email us at laurie@themagicyarnproject.com.
Did you know?
- If this is your first Magic Yarn Beanie, please send two completed beanies to your Region Leader with the completed Feedback Form. Label the beanies with hook size and number of increase rounds. Wait for feedback before creating more beanies.
- Character beanies do NOT require elastic.
- While it’s nice for all parts to be made using the same brand or at least the same sheen of yarn. This is not always possible for the accessory colors. The beanie should be made using the same brand of yarn if it is multiple colors, however it is ok to mix brands when trying to find the perfect color to complete the pieces and parts to complete the superhero. Please see the color suggestions for each character. (Graphic updates to remove the Same Sheen requirement coming this weekend.)
- Please ensure your beanie is right side out before attaching pieces and parts.
