This design is offered for free as a sample of my work, but is also included in a book of 12 patterns.

A simple beanie with a pretty hearts pattern. Worked in the round, in two colours, which are stranded all the way around the hat.

The crown is shaped using simple decreases.

The charted colour pattern is easy to memorise and strand, with the longest blocks of colour only 5 stitches across.

Approximately 120 yards (110 m) of MC and 50 yards (45 m) of CC.

Many thanks to Deann Wilson for her invaluable help on the pattern and testing
