This is a quick weekend knit. It’s fun and if you have never knit with beads before this pattern is a good introduction to the world of bead knitting. The beads can be omitted. The beanie is knit in the round. It measures 53/58.5 cm (21/23”) in circumference and 18 cm (7”) from center top to bottom of band when blocked. There are two “how to” sections, one is how to use a Dental Floss Threader to place the beads. The other section is called “Do the Math”. This last section is to help you make a longer/shorter or larger/smaller beanie.
