A fluffy cumulus sits atop zigzag cirrus lines that spiral to the crown in this cozy beanie. Soft, bulky yarn makes for a quick knit to whip up before the weather turns.

Cirro is worked from the bottom up and written for four sizes, with a tutorial for the alternate cable cast-on.

Zackenlinien schlängeln sich aufwärts über diese bequeme Mütze, die von einer puffigen Bommel wie von einem Wölkchen gekrönt wird. Aus weichem, dickem Garn ruckzuck gestrickt, bevor es wieder kälter wird!

Cirro wird von unten nach oben in Runden gestrickt und kann in vier verschiedenen Größen nachgearbeitet werden. Ein illustrierter Technikkurs für den bei diesem Modell verwendeten Abwechselnden Flechtanschlag ist in der Anleitung enthalten.
