Knit a cozy, functional beanie with thick brioche rib and stockinette! This hat starts with a base headband/hem worked in the round for a double layer of thick, plush brioche over the ears. From there, stitches are picked up to form a new round, and work continues in thick brioche rib from the lower third of the hat up through the crown.

The main sample for Provisions II is made from Malabrigo Yarns Mechita in the Piedras colorway in size M/L.
