Fisherman's Rib Beanie in Four Gauges
“Ahoy, beanie!”
The perfect thing to keep your ears warm in a storm! Fisherman’s Rib is a simple, rhythmic rib created by alternating a knit stitch with a ‘knit one below’. The result? A cozy fabric with unequaled warmth and volume. A deeply textured stitch that’s satisfying and comfy in just about any gauge. Hurray!
And we couldn’t resist the cheery pom-pom on top! Why not?
