How to Crochet a 3-Color Granny Beanie (WITHOUT Cutting the Yarn!)

Why Make a 3-Color Seamless Granny Beanie?

The classic crochet granny stitch is incredibly versatile and rhythmic. While many makers use it for traditional rectangular blankets or bags, working the granny stitch in the round to create a seamless beanie presents a fun and creative challenge.
A common frustration when working with multiple colours in a round is the messy look left behind when you cut your yarn at the end of every row. This pattern solves that exact issue. By using a clever colour-carrying technique, you can create a beautiful, multi-colored striped boho beanie without having to weave in dozens of loose ends or cut your yarn after each round.
Another issue makers face is a slightly twisted or uneven cluster at the start of a new row. In the tutorial below, I share my personal troubleshooting technique to ensure your starting clusters align flawlessly for a perfect finish.
