Expanding Rib Beanie

€4.00

This classic beanie appears to be worked in double rib. But all is not as it seems with this seamless, speedy, surprisingly simple hat.

Worked in the round from the brim up, this pattern is suitable for all skill levels. Knitted with Nutiden held double, it is ideal for mixing small quantities of leftover colours into a unique marled colourway. Or knit it single-stranded to make the most out of your favourite leftover colour, turning it into a super-lightweight hat.
