One T Beanie Hat – Free Knitting Pattern
One T Beanie (Hat ) is our free knitting pattern for beginners +
Beanies, or knitted hats if you prefer, are always useful – making them the perfect quick knit and gift. Especially here in our alpine town Wanaka as we head into our snowy months. The thing with knitting for heads though, is getting a good fit on the different sizes AND making the hat look good on those noggins too.
Introducing; The One T Beanie
This pattern is not only quick, easy, but is really good on the range of head sizes too! It was designed for a larger man sized cranium, but suitable even for me with my incy wincy cranium… this is a one size suits many.
Wear the textured pattern either way, I liked the ribbed side for the bloke – but the softer bumpy side for me 🙂
Pattern Level: Beginner+
Estimated Knit Time: Under 4 hours
Skills: Knit, cast on, cast off, knit, purl, knit in the round, knit 2 stitches together, a little sewing up

- Knit on 5.5mm on circular needles with 60 length

Pattern Notes:
To make this fun hat, you’ll be casting on, joining in the round, working a an easy flowing broken rib pattern with just a little shaping on the crown. This creates a softer / slouchy look at the back of the hat that will suit many (and fit larger amounts of hair)
