This sassy hat starts with bullseye stripes at the top and finishes with bodacious bobbles. The pattern offers two lengths: a shorty cap and a classic, ear-covering beanie.

It’s worked from the top down in joined rounds, and the edging is worked in spiral rounds.

SIZES

To fit head circumferences of

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
NOTE: The beanie is designed to be smaller than actual head circumference with 2 in./5 cm of negative ease. If possible, it’s good to measure the head of the recipient to ensure a hat that fits.

48 (51, 53, 56) cm
Depth:

YARN
NOTE: I used Vanna’s Choice in Purple, Terracotta and Dusty Green for one cap, and Charcoal Grey, Pink and Linen for the other.
