SIZES
One size/Height is adjustable
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
One circumference, two lengths: beanie (slouchy) hat. Approx. 18” circumference x approx. 9.5 (11.5)” tall, to fit a 20-22” head.
SAMPLES SHOWN:
On Sarah:
Slouchy length in colors:
Color A: Big Birdie in color Frog Rock,
Color B: Tod Worsted in color Kitten.
On Bob:
Beanie length in colors:
Color A: Tod Worsted in Cinder,
Color B: Elmer Tweed Worsted in Cork.
VARIATION: Knit a non-fluff version using The Lamb & Kid Tod Worsted paired with Dimond Laine Elmer Tweed Worsted. Our beanie-sized sample shows Color A as Tod Worsted in Cinder with Color B as Elmer Tweed in Cork. We knit with the same needle sizes and to a similar stitch gauge. Your row gauge will be more condensed though, so where the pattern reads “Repeat Pattern Rounds 1-8…” you’ll knit four more times for a beanie with this yarn combination and six more times for a slouchy hat.
