The Rigging Beanie features cabled ropes and textured braces, inspired by motifs used in traditional hand-knit ganseys worn by fisherfolk. This lightweight hat is perfect for breezy days on the water! Instructions are provided in both written and charted formats.

Sizing
I provide instructions for 5 finished circumferences: 14.8”/37.5cm (16.6”/42cm) (18.5”/47cm) (20.3”/51.5cm) (22.2”/56.5cm). I recommend knitting the size that gives closest to 4-5 inches (10-13 cm) of negative ease relative to your head circumference. Finished height is fully adjustable and the pattern provides instructions for both tighter-capped 8”/20cm and slouchier 10”/25cm options.
