Possibly the cosiest beanie ever - the sumptuous brioche stitch makes it both airy and light while keeping you warm. The wide double-folded brim and chunky-but-not-heavy nature of the beanie will instantly bring a dash of casual chicness to your outfit.

The Quiet Delight beanie is knitting bottom up holding together two strands of mohair and one strand of merino. It’s a lovely little project to practice your brioche stitch - if you know how to make a yarn over and knit or purl two stitches together, you can do it!
