Keeping cosy has never been more stylish! Introducing my Oxford Beanie with its Comma stitch pattern and simple, but satisfying crown.

Using only 95m of aran yarn, this beautifully textured hat is ideal for autumn through to spring, and can easily be kept in your bag or pocket for when you need that extra bit of warmth.

This beanie is the perfect companion for my Oxford scarf and is a quick, fun project for knitters of all abilities. It’s knitted in the round and is a delightful combination of ribbed band, knit and surprisingly simple Comma stitch. It’s definitely a great stash busting project and also an excellent pattern for last minute gift knitting.

But whether you knit this accessory for yourself or for someone else, it looks amazing and is a fabulous way to keep warm on a chilly day.

Happy knitting!
