This beanie is worked in the round using stranded knitting (two color knitting) technique. The pattern is available in both chart and written form. I have provided links to video tutorials of stranded knitting and how to read a fair isle chart. The stranded knitting provides extra layering of yarn which makes the hat especially warm for cold months. This hat is great for knitters who are new to fair isle and a quick project for those who are already comfortable with it. I hope you enjoy making this cute and striking hat. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns at mn1181@messiah.edu.

Please do not use this pattern to create items to sell online, but feel free to use it to sell items at events like craft fairs. If you choose to sell them at such an event, please give credit to the original pattern and creator, “Simple Fair Isle Beanie” by Melody Nordberg.
I am a recent college grad who loves knitting, especially hats! I hope to continue developing warm and whimsical hat patterns for outdoor fun for years to come. I hope you enjoy this pattern!
