My first paid crochet project(a beanie)

avatar

Hello everyone!
Hope you all are doing great and enjoying good health.I was not being active from the last few days because i am having some hectic days in University and was not able to make or post something.
But today i got the time and the excitement to write about the project,the beanie that i made as my first crochet order.When I first picked up a crochet hook, I never imagined it would lead to my very first order.The excitement and slight nerves of creating something for someone else were all part of this journey. My first crochet order for the client(my cousin) is a beanie, a classic piece that felt both approachable and meaningful as a starting point. I wanted to create something cozy, stylish, and just right for her, while learning a few new skills along the way.
The last post i shared in this community was also a beanie that i made for my brother as a gift and i also mentioned about the order i got from my cousin after seeing that cap.So she ordered two beanies for his kids,one is 2 years old and the other is 3 years old.
I was planning on sharing the post with the photos of them wearing the beanies but as i am in hostel i can't wait that long to share my progress with the community from where i started the work.

I made this beanie in blue as she demanded and used the white bow that was not her demand but i liked the colour combo.
The stitch that i used in this cap was single crochet.Last time,i made the cap with hdc and this time i wanted to try a new stitch.
I started by making the 47 chains then making sc in the back loop and continue the same process till row 68.

Then i attached the top part my stitching it with a needle and than i made a beautiful pom pom,combed it to make it more fluffy and attached it with the beanie.

And that’s how my project looks like after the hardwork.

Hope you guys liked it alot.
I made it with more care and precision than i normally do because that's my first order and first impression to the customers.
I have to made another one for the second kid but i have not started that one yet and i am planing to make it differently and probably gonna post that one in the next community too.Let me know in the comments if you want the part 2 of this post.
Ok Bye guys.
