The Clydesdale Beanie is incredibly warm, thick and cozy featuring a double fold brim that works hard at guarding you against the cold, Canadian winter wind. Since knitting the sample up for myself, I wear it each and every time I leave the house. It’s an easy and enjoyable knit that uses DK superwash merino. It is knit in the round from brim to crown. I love how basic it is to knit and care for; I literally wash and tumble dry on low heat!
