This easy beanie pattern is made on the LK150 mid gauge knitting machine, using 2 strands of very fine yarn together. Ideal for using up leftover yarns, each hat created is unique in its colours. The tension is kept slightly loose, which makes for a lovely soft beanie. Suitable for beginners.

This is the ladies version of my Santa hat, made on the LK150. I wanted a hat with a long tapered end, so I would get plenty of swing from my pom pom!

This is a Santa hat for an adult, with a head circumference of 24”. The pattern is quite stretchy though!

I wanted to use my LK150 to help with hats for premature babies, which are needed in a range of sizes. I have included detailed written instructions so a beginner to machine knitting could do these, but I have also just included size charts with stitches/rows for those just looking for different sizes.
