Bel Air Beanie (DK)
The Bel Air Beanie combines timeless technique with vintage-inspired charm, just like the classic car it’s named after. This design features a cable-like look without the need for a cable needle, making it both clever and satisfying to knit. Inspired by the four-door ‘57 Chevy Bel Air in my family, the pattern is built around a four-section motif repeat, a perfect nod to its namesake. Knit in the round from the bottom up, this hat holds your attention from start to finish as you work each striking motif into place. It’s a beautiful blend of structure, style, and nostalgia. It is one size and can fit women, teens, and some men.
