Rosella Beanie — a bold, texture-packed design that’s just as fun to knit as it is to wear! This intermediate-level pattern keeps things interesting with a playful mix of cables, slip stitches, and twisted stockinette. The deep folded brim adds extra coziness and a polished finish—but it’s totally customizable, so you can knit it your way. With the striking contrast of worsted and super bulky yarns, Rosella brings the perfect balance of structure and softness. Whether you’re in the mood for a challenge or just love a beanie with personality, the Rosella Beanie is ready to soar off your needles! #RosellaBeanie #DelilahKnits
