“Pick-a-six” six-strand super chunky DK Beanie pattern

Available from Lovecrafts

3 sizes included in the pattern - Small (S, child), Medium (M, adult), Large (L, large adult).

This hat knits up super quick, is easy to make and is ideal as a quick gift. It’s also SUPER warm, so make sure you make one for yourself!

We’ve included instructions on our favourite way to join in the round and make the pom-pom at the end of this pattern however there are many ways to do this – just use whichever you find easiest, you’ll still end up with a beautiful hat!

We recommend knitting a tension swatch square to check your gauge as knitting with the six strands can be a handful at first. Adjust needle size to obtain gauge.

You will need

  • 7mm circular needles (40cm or longer - we use 100cm)
  • 8mm circular needles (40cm or longer - we use 100cm)
  • 6 balls of DK wool (at least 100g per ball)
  • Crochet hook (for weaving in ends, any size)
  • Cardboard & scissors (or a pom-pom maker)
