In these uncertain times, it seems like we all need a reminder that as stressful as the world may be right now, being forced to slow down also gives us an opportunity to start fresh, to turn over a new leaf. I designed the New Leaf beanie with that philosophy in mind.

This pattern contains step-by-step instructions to create your very own New Leaf Beanie! Pattern is given for a one-size-fits-most adult woman. The basic increase, decrease, and lacework stitches create a repetitive yet effective effect of layered leaves that is perfect for a seasonal project. Instructions for lacework are given in both written and chart format.
