Why save the best for last? The Cake First Beanie flips tradition by serving up its most decadent detail right from the start. A richly textured brim grabs the attention and sets the tone. The clean and simple body eases in, like enjoying the frosting before the rest of the slice, while the decreases are the cherry on top. Perfect for knitters who love bold design and satisfying structure. This pattern is a sweet balance of flair and simplicity. Go ahead, enjoy your cake first. This beanie is one size and can fit adults and teens.
