Meet the Friendship Bracelet Beanie! Write a special word, phrase, name, or cute message and gift this to a friend! This is also a great pattern for your favorite Swiftie!

This hat was designed to resemble friendship bracelets. There are 3 different “bracelet” rounds included in this pattern. Each one includes instructions and a video tutorial on how to complete the bracelet for the stitches and techniques you may not be familiar with. The Braid bracelet also includes a photo tutorial.

This hat is written for super bulky yarn (but also includes a note on how to complete an adult size bulky weight hat), and is written for 6 sizes baby 0-6m, baby 6-12m, toddler 1-3 yr, child 4-7 year, tween 9-13 yr, and adult

What you will need:

Super Bulky Yarn-Malabrigo Rasta was used for color A of this pattern, but any super bulky size 6 yarn will work. Yardage below does not include yardage for yarn pom.
Adult-Color A: approximately 60 yds
Tween 9-13 yr Color A: approximately 56 yds
Child 4-7y- Color A: approximately 52 yds
Toddler 1-3y- Color A: approximately 45 yds
Baby 6-12m- Color A: approximately 35 yds
Baby 0-6m- Color A: approximately 30 yds
Color B, C, D, and E each require approximately 5 yds (will be slightly less for smaller sizes)
Needles: US size 11/ 8 mm and US size 13/ 9 mm circular needles
Optional DPN’s
Tapestry needle, Measuring tape, Scissors
Optional pom pom maker
Cube Letter Beads- I suggest these over circular letter beads because they have a bigger hole for your tapestry needle and yarn to fit through. I got mine from Amazon! These are optional as this hat can be made without them if you choose. These beads can be choking hazards for small children and should be noted with the sale of your finished products.

I hope you enjoy playing around with different colors and phrases as much as I did for this pattern!
