This is a one-color brioche beanie knitted from brim to crown.

A repeating twist 3 right on top of another with a few rows of brioche stitch in between creates a beautiful column of small cables.

Pattern is consistent from the brim to the last row which is sometimes very difficult to maintain in hats using brioche pattern.

Instruction includes beanie and watch cap.

Reversible hat but with different pattern.

Easy and fun to knit and can be finished in one sitting.

Tonal, neutral and variegated yarns can be used! Enjoy and have fun!

(Cast on using Long Tail or Double Cast on using US 11 / 8 mm.)
