FJORD BEANIE

Fjord Beanie is a hat with a triple-layered, striped brim and a close, snug fit. First, the brim is knitted, starting with one colour, then adding stripes, before it is folded twice. Then, decreases are worked at staggered intervals that give the hat a spiral effect, and a close-fitting result. Make a swatch to find the needle size that gives the correct gauge.
