This playful and FUN hat showcases “circles”/YO’s that are “embroidered”/whipstitched. Fruit Loops also boasts a beautifully beaded brim, allowing for endless possibilities and color combinations. It’s the perfect accessory for all ages and the whole family, making for a fantastic photo opportunity. Fruit Loops is knit in the round using size US5 (for the brim) and US6 (for the crown) 16-inch circular needles. The beaded brim, and more importantly stunning appearance, is achieved by pre-stranding the beads before cast-on. While the beads are optional, do you want pretty or SUPER pretty?! Check out my Yarnitoli Facebook group and Youtube for helpful beading videos. Plus, this pattern includes a video tutorial on how to create the “circles”. Have SO MUCH fun with this little gem & I sure hope you share photos and/or tag me on social media.
