This started as a challenge to use the same fingering yarn to develop different looking hats. I played with one, two and four strands of the Estelle Permin yarn and came up with four hat patterns that hopefully will suit everyone’s taste for something simple or complicated.

This Hip Beanie is knitted with four strands of fingering yarn. Permin Estelle makes it very soft. It is lovely adorned with a fur pompom.

The pattern is a 29 stitch-repeat and each row is easy to memorize There are four-stitch cables that can easily be knit without a cable needle - there are many videos available on the net on this subject.
