Brimpaen

Introducing the Brimpaen Beanie – a stylish and cozy accessory that comes with a delightful secret: the intricate colourwork is simpler than you might think! This beautiful beanie is crafted using a technique that only involves working with one colour per round, allowing the stunning colourwork to be achieved effortlessly through slipped stitches. The result? A warm, snug, and wonderfully slouchy beanie that is perfect for any chilly day.

This charming sample features an eye-catching combination of ten rich and vibrant colours, but don’t worry if you prefer a more minimalist approach – Brimpaen looks just as fabulous with fewer colours, even one or two. Let your creativity shine, and customize your beanie to match your personal style!

The name Brimpaen is inspired by a picturesque bush location in rural Victoria, Australia, capturing the spirit of nature in its design. The sample was beautifully knit using ten shades of WOOLganics Organic Merino 8ply/DK yarn, known for its softness and warmth, but feel free to experiment with any yarn you love; multiple substitutes and alternatives are suggested below for your convenience.

Whether you are an experienced knitter or a beginner looking to try your hand at colourwork techniques, the Brimpaen Beanie is an engaging project that offers both fun and satisfaction. Start your knitting journey today, and create a beanie that will keep you stylish and warm throughout the season!
