Welcome to vimlaknit with my new basketweave stitch beanie pattern.

Yarn, Needles & Tools for This Easy Beanie Pattern
1- 3.25 mm straight needle.
2- Vardhman Woolista Merino Wool Yarn (4 ply/stranded, 8 ply thickness, 100% pure merino wool, Yardage approx. 180-200 mtrs per 100gm ball).
3- Other optional tools are a tape measure, scissors, and yarn needle.

Casting On: Cast on 122 stitches using Vardhman Woolista Merino Wool Yarn and 3.25mm straight needles to begin this basketweave knit beanie pattern.
Finished Size & Fit: This beanie measures approximately 8.5 inches in total length and is designed for a loose, comfortable fit around a 24-inch head circumference, making it a great one-size-fits-most option for adults.
Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate
Pattern Language: English
Techniques Used: Cast on 122 stitches and work in 2×2 rib (K2, P2) until the brim measures 1 inch, or your preferred length. Then switch to the basketweave stitch pattern and continue knitting until the total length reaches 8 inches (7 inches body + 1 inch brim). Once you’ve completed the crown shaping, cut the yarn leaving a long tail, and sew the edges together neatly using mattress stitch or your preferred seaming method to finish this beginner-friendly beanie.
