Strandlines Beanie is a companion knit to match Strandlines Cowl. It’s a long traditional toque-style hat rather than a skullcap, meant to be worn slouched or with the brim folded, watchcap-style.

The samples are knit in Malabrigo Washted in Indicieta (L), and Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok in Gray Harbor, Storm Cloud, and Golden Meadow (M). Size Small uses a little bit of both yarns, in the same colors used for the larger hats.

Gauge:
Gauge is 22 sts and 27 rows over 4” of k2, p2 ribbing in worsted-weight yarn. This measurement is flat and without tension—ribbing is stretchy! Please be sure to check your gauge.

1 16” circular needle and 1 set of DPNs in US7-8/4.5-5.0mm, or size needed for gauge
