Acacia Mosaic Beanie

Discover the exquisite graphic stitch featured in this stylish beanie, a variation of Barbara Walker’s renowned simulated basketweave pattern. This captivating mosaic design is achieved through a clever sequence of slipped stitches, knitting with two-tone stripes while using only one color at a time. The beanie is crafted from the bottom edge, seamlessly working its way up to a fashionable finish. With a unique construction that incorporates a 10-stitch, 16-round repeat, this project is perfect for knitters looking to enhance their skills. You can follow the pattern easily using either the chart or detailed written instructions. Keep in mind that every second round is a repeat of the previous round, making it a rhythmic and enjoyable process. When selecting a size, choose one that will stretch to comfortably fit your head size, as this beanie is designed to be worn with negative ease for a snug yet stylish fit.

The stunning beanies showcased in this pattern were knitted using Cleckheaton Superfine Merino 8 ply and Adagio Mills Alpaca 8 ply, offering a luxurious look and feel. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, this pattern is a perfect choice for anyone wanting to create a cozy and fashionable accessory.
