The Side Braid Beanie is a classic knit beanie with simple faux cables and a bold braid. Worn slightly to the side for style. This pattern is knit in the round starting with twisted ribbing, followed by a simple body using a larger needle size.

Both written and chart instructions are provided. English instructions.

This is a perfect beginner cable project, but will satisfy more advanced knitters as well.

This beanie was designed for Bluprint/Craftsy (in 2019) and has a inspirational video to go with. The video is not intended to be instructional, but will showcase the pattern within the clip. Enjoy!
