Knitting: Beanie, Toque
This is a really easy hat pattern with a very simple crown decrease. It would be a great introductory pattern if you have never knit with two or more colors and would like to give it a try!

The only stitches required in this pattern are the stockinette stitch (knit every s...

The yarn I used in the hat pictured, is Cascade 220 Superwash wool yarn in Royal Purple, Shire Green, Lime Sherbet, Pumpkin, Black, and Aran for this pattern. (Worsted weigh...

The yarn I used is Cascade 220 Superwash wool yarn in Shire Green, Really Red, and Aran. I’ve tried to go into quite a bit of detail (probably too much for most of you!) in hopes of making this pattern as easy ...
