Landscape Beanie
Landscape Beanie is a simple yet stylish knit, designed with alternating eyelet and stocking stitch blocks. Inspired by the vastness and colours of the Australian landscape, this beanie is knit seamlessly in the round from the brim upwards. Its slouchy fit makes it adaptable as both a statement piece and deep enough to cover chilly ears.

This pattern was originally released as part of WARM: a large-scale collaborative knitting project that explored why the earth is warming and what we can do to make a positive change.
Knitters of all skill levels contributed to this large-scale piece that was exhibited at the Art Gallery of Ballarat in September 2016. It now has a permanent home in the Geelong Wool Museum.
