Easy knit pattern for a fitted, slouchy or folded cuff beanie hat.
2 pattern versions: knit in the round (circular needle) and straight needles, so you can knit the hat your way.

Sizing & Gauge
8 sizes from newborn baby to XL adult.
While standard DK gauge of 22 stitches and 28 rows/rounds is used, exact gauge is not vital as the hat is quite stretchy. The hat is your swatch, there’s no need for test squares. :smile:

Yarn Amounts
You need 1 small 50g ball of yarn for baby sizes or 2 small balls/1 big ball to make a hat for a child or adult (with some leftover).

This hat pattern is also available for worsted/aran yarn and 5mm needles for a slightly heavier hat and quicker knit: See Worsted/aran beanie for circular needles and straight needles
