I have fallen in love with brioche! This pattern came to life as I wanted a simple beanie that I could use to practice my brioche skills before diving in to more complex brioche projects. It is perfect for the knitter who is somewhat new to brioche and looking to add a bit more texture and design to their projects! Instructions included for both fitted and slouchy versions.

MC (color A) – 280 yards fingering weight yarn

US 4 double pointed needles

MEASUREMENTS
Finished hat is sized for the average adult woman (22-24” head circumference). There is quite a bit of stretch and therefore, one size fits most.
