Dream Catcher Beanie & Cowl
In designing this hat, I played with different types of elongated and slipped stitches. The resulting texture reminds me of ornamental dreamcatchers, protective dream amulets that bring happiness and good energy.
The pattern is for multiple yarn weights, from DK to super bulky and comes with a video tutorial showing some steps of the instructions. As a bonus I also added instructions for knitting a matching cowl.
Skill level: intermediate
