The grass-stitch beanie is a design idea that came about while flipping through my knit stitchionary -- I fell in love with grass-stitch! Combining this deceptively easy stitch with a gorgeous skein of walnut-dyed merino from G. Sheller resulted in a project I’m proud of and thoroughly enjoyed designing and knitting!

The stitch pattern consists of a two-row repeat that is easily memorized making this a great project for social knitting. The decreases create a pleasing design that resembles a snowflake and will require a bit more of your attention, yet they are not at all difficult.

Instructions for both a beanie and a slouchy are included. Feel free to add a pompom if you’d like!

Beanie - approx. 8 inches from brim to top, unblocked
