This simple fitted beanie is a great beginner to intermediate pattern. I have designed it to be a fitted piece, but you can add more body rows to make it slouchy. Here, I have used an acrylic yarn, which is great for durability. Cotton yarn would also be fantastic, to make a fun summer beach hat.

Circumference at brim band 18” (46 cm) unstretched, 7.75” (20 cm) in length from brim edge to crown; will fit head circumference of 20” to 23” (50.5 cm to 58 cm)
