This super bulky weight beanie works up in a flash. The design consists of left and right twisted stitches to give the look of cable knitting, but without the need for a cable needle. I have added columns of slipped stitches to give a little definition between each stitch set. Both elements combine to create a design that I think looks like Art Deco style palm trees. I am a huge fan of art deco style architecture and I just love the use of bold geometric lines mixed with elements in nature.

Included with this pattern are video links to tutorials for the right and left twisted stitches.
