I’ve always had troubles sizing my beanies to fit - either too wide or too short! I’ve researched sizes and have found a formula that works for me! The best part about my beanie is that it’s worked in the round. NO SEAMS!!! This makes me happy, happy, happy. I’ve also perfected an invisible finish, so even though the beanie is worked in the round, you’ll never be able to tell! I’ve included photo tutorials of starting the beanie using a magic ring and working in the round; as well as the invisible finish.

Enjoy! I hope my sizing works as well for you as it does me. And if I find some new tricks or sizing updates, I’ll be sure to forward that onto anyone who has purchased the pattern. The learning never ends in my world!

Thanks everyone!
