NEJI 捻 (Japanese) - twist
This sport or DK weight beanie is worked in 2x2 ribbing and offers a variety of styling options as well as choices for round or square crowns, various lengths – whether to be worn straight or with a fold over brim, and smaller or larger sizes. But the highlight of this design is the innovative technique for Fully Fashioned Cabled decreases, which create an unexpected twist yet make this hat fully reversible. Video tutorial for this technique is included in the pattern.
