Burren Beanie

Introducing the Burren Beanie, a beautifully crafted knitting pattern inspired by the stunning Burren region of Ireland. This area's unique charm is also home to Sionnach Yarns, who collaborated with me to develop this exquisite design. The Burren Beanie not only pays homage to its roots but also presents a breathtaking view across the sea to Inis Oírr, the smallest of the Aran Islands, where I was born and raised!

As a passionate knitter hailing from the Aran Islands, I take great pride in adapting traditional Aran styles for the modern knitting enthusiast. In this pattern, I’ve transformed a classic Aran cable design into a seamless piece that can be worked in the round using two sizes of circular needles. With this hat, the striking cables flow gracefully from brim to crown without any interruptions, providing a polished final look.

The cabling pattern is accessible yet intriguing, featuring an 8-stitch and 8-row repeat. This makes the Burren Beanie an ideal project for improving and intermediate knitters who are eager to enhance their skills while creating a gorgeous accessory. Knitting this hat will not only refine your technique but also yield a stunning piece that you’ll be proud to wear or gift.

Designed to fit adults comfortably, the Burren Beanie comes in three sizes: Small, Medium, and Large, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone. Best of all, you’ll need just one 100g skein (or two 50g skeins) of yarn to complete any size, making it a cost-effective choice for your next knitting adventure.

Embrace the beauty of the Burren and the heritage of the Aran Islands with this enchanting knitting pattern. Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or looking to hone your craft, the Burren Beanie will elevate your knitting collection and keep you warm during those chilly days.
