I had another custom order but this time for a R2D2 beanie. My custom orders I actually work off of a picture of what the client has seen and wants so it takes me a little bit longer but this R2D2 one wasn't very difficult to do at all.
What the beanie looks like lying flat.
These are custom extras that I made and attached to the inside of the ear flaps.
Because the beanie is made in double crochet stitch, I had to make a small square using the same colour, then sew on the extras to that square AND THEN sew it onto the inside of the beanie.
The front and sides of the beanie. I think it looks pretty awesome! I love the front of the beanie and all the separate blue square on the beanie. The front blue square I made apart and sewed on after the beanie was complete.
The top of the beanie. I started out using the royal blue and then moved onto the main colour of R2D2 called snomoon. I changed colours as needed to make the top squares. I think changing colour is my new favourite thing to do in crocheting lol!!!
Well what do you think of R2D2?! Cool hey! So proud of it and cannot wait for my client to receive it. If you have a picture of a beanie you ADORE on Pinterest, well then get hold of me and let me make it for you ;)

If you're interested in a custom beanie, you can email me your pictures. Am currently only doing custom work so as to focus a little more on finding a stable job. Not making stock-on-hand anymore
I cannot make EVERYTHING under the sun but will try work something out for the client you know.
