Notes

I’ve been itching to try brioche and I’ve seen a few lovely beanies made from this pattern so I had to give it a try.

I wanted high contrast and the only appropriate MC that I had was a 10 ply but it seems to be working well with a double-up fingering weight CC.

I had to print off the stitch key section to keep it beside me while I refered to the PDF on my tablet so that I didn’t need to keep swiping backwards and forwards, but after doing a stitch a few times they sunk in to memory.

I love my beanie :) It’s squishy and soft and will be extra warm for winter.
