Who doesn’t have a little disco in their heart? This design is a collaboration with GingersnapThat . When Kim and Colin asked me to create a gnome sweater with a disco theme I couldn’t resist making a matching beanie as well. The yarn listed in the pattern is black light reactive, so it glows in the dark. Dance and be seen, my disco friends!

Finished Measurements: Approx, not stretched, after blocking:
Adult S/M: circumference 19 inches (47.5 cm), height 8 inches (20 cm)
Adult L: circumference 22.5 inches (54cm), height 8¾ inches (22 cm)
