Intrinsic is a basic little beanie with broken ribbing. The pattern includes instructions for two sizes knit with fingering weight and one size for DK weight yarn. It’s worked from top down, so it’s easy to optimize your yarn consumption. Ribbing allows this beanie to fit many head circumferences comfortably. The key detail of this beanie are the crown increases happening in three spots. This is a great basic pattern you’ll go back to over and over again!
