Wayward is a slouchy beanie knit from the bottom up. It features a simple diamond cable motif filled with purl bumps to let your yarn shine. It is written for both DK and fingering weight yarn, and is available in five sizes, from baby to adult large. It is meant to coordinate with both the A Sea Chanty of Sort cowl, and the I Typed for Miles… fingerless gloves.

I have implemented a Pay What Works model for all of my patterns. The full price reflects how much work goes into each of my patterns. All of my patterns are tech edited and test knit. I know not everyone can afford to pay full price, so I have created 3 coupon codes to help:

KnitLL15 - 15% off KnitLL30 - 30% off KnitLL50 - 50% off

I hope that those of you who can afford to pay full price will, but if you can’t please use the code that works best for you. If you are interested in sponsoring patterns for other knitters, please send me a message!
