Notes

After 3 little beanies, it’s time to knit for adults!
This one is for Martin who likes tight beanies.

I chose the lovely Chunkeanie pattern and made some alteration to have it:

  • knitted the ribs with smaller needles,
  • added 3 cm of ribs to make a fold including the extra cm planned in the pattern.

The yarn is wonderful, a bit rough because of the linen but soft at the same time thanks to the alpaca. Martin seems happy with his new hat, phew!
