Stylish accessories are often the simplest and this beanie is just that with its close fit and elegant crown.

Using only 90m of aran yarn, this cosy, but beautifully textured hat is ideal for autumn through to spring, and can easily be kept in your bag or pocket for when you need that extra bit of warmth.

This beanie is the perfect companion to my Cowl Number 2 and Cowl Number 2.1 patterns as it uses the same simple and relaxing stitch pattern. It is a very quick, satisfying project for knitters of all abilities and it’s also very easy to adjust in size should you need it to be bigger or smaller. It’s definitely a great stash buster and also an excellent pattern for last minute gift knitting.

But whether you knit this accessory for yourself or for someone else, it looks amazing and is a fabulous way to keep warm on a chilly day.

Happy knitting!
