This year, my son told me his favorite color is orange. So of course, I had to knit him an orange beanie once the weather got cooler.

The Orange Beanie uses a fun elongated stitch which creates a beautiful braided pattern up the body of the beanie. The beanie is worked in the round and includes sizes for baby, child, adult small and adult large so the whole family can have matching beanies!

PATTERN INFORMATION:
-This beanie is made in one piece, from the bottom up.
-Sizing listed in pattern will be in Baby (Child, Adult S, Adult L)
-The beanie is meant to be worn with 0-2” / 0-5cm negative ease. This means the finished size of the beanie should be 0-2” / 0-5cm smaller than the head of the wearer.
-Sample in size Child.
