Introducing your new favorite lady!

My Favorite quote of all time is “Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.”

The Painted Lady Beanie pattern is written for 4 weights: super bulky, light super bulky, bulky, and light bulky. It is worked in the round from the brim up. It is a quick knit with a simple 4 round repeat that produces beautiful results! It has a beautiful textured design resembling butterfly wings.

I hope you enjoy it!
