Emerald Isle Beanie
This pattern is for a one size beanie with a ribbed brim with stranded colorwork. It is available online and as a pdf on my blog (link below!)
Please let me know if you have suggestions for the pattern or if you have a completed project with it!
Materials
Berroco Ultra Alpaca (50% Alpaca, 50% Wool), 3.5 oz. (100g)/215 yd. (197 m); 1 skein 6289 Charcoal Mix (A) and 1 skein 6277 Peat Mix (B)
(I used less than half a skein of each
Size US 5 (3.75 mm) 16’’ circular needles
Size US 5 (3.75 mm) double pointed needles
Tapestry needle
Gauge
23 stitches and 28 rows = 4” (10 cm) in stockinette stitch on US 5 needles
(Gauge is not extremely important for this project)
Notes
In the colorwork, hold A as the background color and B as the foreground color. In order to make the colorwork lay flat, make sure to twist the two strands of yarn together if knitting more than 4 continuous stitches in one color. If you’re new to Fair Isle type colorwork, a great tutorial is: http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEwinter06/FEATwin06TT.html
In the colorwork diagram, the black squares indicate decreased stitches.
