This worsted weight ‘Luck Of The Irish Beanie” uses multiple colors of yarn to create a fun fair isle design that is perfect for feeling festive on St. Patrick’s Day. I have included written instructions for both the brim and decrease sections and a chart for the main fair isle portion. When choosing colors, I suggest using high contrasting colors to really show off the shamrock design.
