Beachcomber Beanie Knitting Pattern

The Beachcomber Beanie was inspired by a love of exploring the beaches of B.C. One of my favourite activities is to head to the beach at low tide and hop from tidepool to tidepool along a rocky shore in search of marine life. I have some of my happiest memories spending hours with friends and family searching for perfect shells, sand dollars, or, if we were lucky, an octopus hiding under rocks.
