This is the perfect beanie to gift for Valentines Day and to wear all year round. This hearts hat knitting pattern is worked from the bottom, up. Use your favorite technique to apply the knitting chart to this simple, fitted beanie hat. I used the “stranding” method, by which you carry the second (and third) colors behind the live stitches, twisting them in to anchor the “floats” as you work.

This hat will be fitted, depending on the wearer’s head size. Wear it as a simple beanie or add a pom-pom to add a bit more excitement. Experiment with different colors of Malabrigo Rios to find a hat you’ll love forever.
