Whether it’s night or day, this delightfully thick, warm beanie will keep the cold at bay. Featuring the sun, moon, and stars, this chart is great fun to work up.

The ear flaps provide extra protection to make sure that no matter where the beanie sits on your head, you’re covered!

This is a double knitted piece, meaning it is fully reversible. Both layers are worked at the same time. The ear flaps are worked flat, and incorporated into the beanie, which is knitted in the round.

The pattern provides detailed instructions, so even if you’ve never double knitted before, the skills are broken down to help you get there.
