Description:
Birgitte Beanie is a beginner-friendly hat, worked from the bottom up in 3×3 ribbing, with decreases at the crown and a folded brim. The hat is designed to use just one skein of the recommended yarn.

Size: womens one size
Fits a head circumference of approximately 55–57cm (21¾–22½in).
The person modeling the hat on the photos has a head circumference of 57cm (22½in).

Gauge:
10×10cm (4×4in) = 20 stitches × 30 rows in 3×3 ribbing on 3.5mm (US4) needles, after washing and blocking.

Needles:
Circular needle 3,5mm (US4), length 40cm (16in).
Double-pointed needles 3,5mm (US4) or a long circular needle for magic loop.

Yarn:
1 skein Gepard Eco Cashmere Vintage (50g=150m)

If you choose an alternative yarn, I recommend using a cashmere yarn (one or more strands held together) with a gauge of 10cm (4in) = 20 stitches in stockinette stitch. Make sure to choose a yarn that creates a dense fabric so the hat can keep the wind out.
