Inspired by my grandmother… Read the story in the pattern.

Mini Guimauve is constructed in the round from the brim to the crown. Worked with a lofty yarn to tackle those chilly days while adding a unique touch to your wardrobe. With lace stitches and little decorative bobbles - the ‘mini guimauves’, French for mini marshmallows - this pattern produces a delicate beanie.
