The Bestie Beanie is a cable stitch hat knitted in the round. A 1x1 rib is worked to create a stretchy brim, after which twists and braids alternate with a basket-weave pattern on either side of the decorative front panel. The name comes from the fact that this was designed as a Christmas present for a friend.

Sizing:
This hat is made to fit a 23” head. The best way to change the sizing if needed, is to increase/reduce your cast on in sets of 4, adding/taking away 2 each from mirroring basket-weave sections.

This pattern is written out in its entirety, for people who have trouble reading charts; however, The charts are included at the end. (note: the charts are just for the main body of the hat- the decrease section is only written)
