ANNOUNCEMENT: I’ve found that many of my customers are accomplished knitters but unsure of their felting skills. I’ve recently started a newsletter where I answer customer’s questions and provide tips on felting, as well as announce new patterns and provide substantial newsletter-only discounts.

Nothing blocks wind and snow like felted wool (at least nothing natural does). For the ultimate in winter warmth, whip up this felted beanie with a contrasting ribbed trim. Knit from the top down in the round, the beanie is felted to exact size in a washing machine. A bulky weight ribbed cuff is picked up post-felting, adding an additional layer of warmth.

Comprehensive instructions are provided for how to felt the hat to size.
