This beanie is made with a side to side construction, meaning it is worked in turned rows to make a panel before the ends are seamed together to close the beanie. The top of the beanie makes use of small short rows to reduce the bulk when the beanie is cinched shut while also creating a lightly gathered look at the top (the pattern includes photos to help with this stitch placement). This makes it a great gender neutral unisex option as a pom pom is optional!
