NOTES
The hat is constructed to be knit top down.
Double brioche fabric is incredibly stretchy. If you are in between sizes, it is advised to pick a smaller size. Depending how you prefer to wear your beanie, it is imperative that you wash and block your finished hat prior to wearing it as it would reflect true fit. You can additionally adjust and manipulate the fabric during the blocking process if desired. In addition, if you are not sure the size will fit the wearer, instead of ripping your work, you can choose to work it longer, as the hat would stretch widthwise and the length of the hat would contract in length to accommodate the circumference.
This hat is completely reversible, with MC or CC being predominantly shown on either side.
This design can be customized to be worked with tall (pointy) or shallow (rounded) crown and additionally hat’s body can be worked for a beanie length or with a foldover brim.
GAUGE
22 sts and 58 rnds = 4” / 10 cm in Double Brioche Rib on smaller needle, measured relaxed once dry after washing and blocking
Note that 58 worked rnds in Double Brioche looks like only 29 rnds, because each stitch is slipped (or the equivalent) on alternate rnds.
