The 31st beanie in the 51 days of Lizzie Bear Beanies is the Morgan Bear Beanie. The Morgan Beanie is a beautiful textured beanie for all ages to wear!! You will be hooked on making this beanie for everyone!! Two things that I really love about this beanie, is that it can be made in any color and this beautiful texture is created by using simple crochet stitches. This beanie is great if you are a beginner crocheter and looking to expand your crochet skills or if you are an experienced crocheter, you can work this up super quick.
