Sweet Honeybee is worked bottom-up, from brim to crown. Stretchy one by one ribbing forms the band. The charming bee stitch gives the body some texture, and paired decreases shape the crown.

The bee stitch resembles dot stitch on the wrong side, so Sweet Honeybee is completely reversible.

Sweet Honeybee is a quick and easy project suitable for beginners. Requires familiarity with knitting in the round.
