Classic Rib Beanie

Pattern Level: Easy

Estimated Knit Time: Under 4 hours

Wool: Smooth NZ Merino DK

Needles: 5.5mm, knit in the round on circulars with 60cm cable

Skills: Knit, purl, knit two together (K2TOG), cast on, cast off

Pattern by: Michelle Joy (Stewart), written in a less traditional style to be less technical and give the crafter room to adjust the fit and style

Notes:

The Classic Beanie Hat is cast on around the head and knit upwards to the crown, with tidy sudden increases to close the top of the crown.  This hat will fit adult heads ranging from a small size to a reasonably large size – all from one ball of Smooth NZ Merino!
