Skill Level: 3 stars (Intermediate)

Notes:
Knitting from the Brim up to the Crown. Beginning with Circular needles, then switching to DPs as you decrease to “shape the top.”

Considered “Intermediate” level only due to switching between 2 colors. Almost the same pattern as “Just the Basics Beanie” which was rated “2 stars: Easy” in this book. Only real difference here is the stripes that are added.
