We all have that go-to beanie that we reach for time and time again when it gets chilly out. This one is mine, and I’m sure it will become yours too! The combination of the thick folded brim and the tightly woven lattice cables creates a dense, heavy fabric that will keep you warm no matter the weather. I would recommend this pattern to intermediate knitters who have experience working with cables.

The yarn I used for this pattern is Stitch Please Chunky by Premier Yarns. I’ve tried so many wool yarns over the years, and they’re often scratchy and uncomfortable to wear. Not this one! It’s 100% wool, yet it feels soft and luxurious to the touch, and it comes in so many beautiful colors to choose from! The best part is that it’s extremely affordable to fit any budget. Give it a try, you’ll love it!

MATERIALS

  • Approx. 150-180 yards (118 m) of heavy worsted (4) to light bulky (5) yarn. I used a little over 1 skein of Stitch Please Chunky in the color “Rust in the Wind”

  • US 9 (5.5 mm) 16” circular knitting needles, or size needed to obtain gauge, as well as size 9 dpns for the decreases (dpns optional if you use magic loop)

  • US 7 (4.5 mm) 16” circular knitting needles for the brim (optional)

  • Cable needle or double-pointed needle

  • Common notions, such as locking stitch markers, yarn needle, and scissors.

MEASUREMENTS

Approx 20 in (51 cm) around and 8 in (20.5 cm) tall with the brim folded up.

GAUGE

17 sts x 21 rows = 4” in stockinette stitch
