The beanie is knit from brim to crown in
classic 1×1 ribbing, creating a stretchy,
well-fitting fabric. The minimal texture
allows the ribbing itself to define the look.
Worked in fingering-weight yarn, the beanie
remains light and comfortable, making it suitable
for layering across seasons. The brim can be
folded double for a neat, balanced look, folded
triple for extra warmth, or worn higher for a more
relaxed style.
